Reply to comment by Dull_Dog in Maine is out of pediatric hospital beds. “As of Nov. 24, about 30,000 of the country's 40,000 pediatric hospital beds were available. Five states are at 90% capacity or higher. Currently the most overwhelmed state is Maine, at 109% capacity” by membaberry18

A triple whammy of RSV, COVID, and the flu.

Yea, this is the case. Our pediatrician said that a lot of the hospitalizations are due to a combo of RSV and flu or Covid. The two illnesses combined are just too much for the immune system.

Stay safe out there Mainers.
