This happens to be very true in my hospital. And the cases that are severe are non vaccinated.

Reninds me...In 2009 a family member dealing with cancer, was at hospital for cancer treatment related...walked in on own and was previously only at home. Felt good etc...was supposed to be there a few days max and go back home... while there, ended up contracting swine flu just as that virus epidemic surge happened and ended up being there for 3+ weeks.
The article is about people coming to the hospital for lets say cardiac issues or infection etc and incidently they find out they have covid upon testing on admission. So they get counted as covid but not really there because of covid.
As for your story, I can say that does happen. Definitely back in april and may 2020 and is beginning to happen again just the last few weeks. My floor weve had a few patients get covid because someone in hospital gave it to them. Visitor before they stopped allowing last week or staff members.
