Just to clarify the data I'm looking at; Inpatient Beds Occupied (COVID 19) 8-9%
So of Inpatients beds occupied, 8-9% are occupied because of covid 19...and children are approximately 2.4% of the 8-9%, which by math in public comes to......well.....well.....a really small number!! if I'm reading that all correctly.
