2/3 for example deaf smith county texas shows 93% of beds taken by covid but only 43% of beds used. Harris county shows a hospital at 630% of capacity

Response: We suspect these could be hospital reporting errors. For example in Deaf Smith County the underlying data shows the only hospital reporting total hospitalizations (11) < COVID hospitalizations (24). Not much we can do about that.
