The US federal government is trying every trick and strategy to increase the medical supplies, reduce the shortage of staff, and every other small thing that directly affects the functioning of the health care facility in the country.
According to the latest reports, many medical scholars in the United States are predicting that the cases may start by the end of this month but the coming weeks are crucial as well. This situation can be controlled if people get vaccinated and also the eligible ones receive the booster shots at the earliest.
The spread of pandemic is putting the US hospital’s real ability to test and also generating a lot of tension and stress amongst healthcare workers as well as the patients because the hospital admissions are rising and on the other hand the shortage of medical supplies has become a new norm for the country. To deal with the increasing severity of the situation, long-term plans are needed so that not every department and community is under pressure.
Since the previous week, the hospitals are getting full at a much larger pace than ever before, and in some parts of the country incomplete or improper medical treatment issues have been registered by the Public Health Department.
According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in the upcoming days, the United States will surpass more than one million daily active cases and the medical system might collapse.
By the end of the last week, around 25 percent of the hospitals have reported an acute shortage of medical supplies and health care workers. The rise in the cases has been blamed by the hospital authorities because the omicron infection has attacked the frontline workers and they are under isolation to get the required treatment.
