Some hospitals are going days without a single COVID-19 patient in the ICU for the first time since early 2020.
The number of patients hospitalized with the coronavirus has fallen more than 90% in more than two months, and some hospitals are going days without a single COVID-19 patient in the ICU for the first time since early 2020.
Restrictions and guidance related to cruises, boosters, travel masks and more are either easing or moving in that direction. COVID-19 patients had filled 30% of Kettering Health’s nearly 1,600 hospital beds back in January, Weinstein said.

Ohio State will no longer restrict patients to two designated guests, who could only stop by separately.Doctors, nurses and respiratory therapists are also getting a much needed break in some areas.
