NASHVILLE'S NEVER-ENDING PANDEMIC OF RECKLESSNESS
DESPITE CONSTANT SUPPLICATIONS for people to wear masks and stay inside whenever possible from healthcare professionals at every level, Nashville is currently seeing a boom in Covid-19 cases. While tourism is partly to blame, we can't ignore our own personal responsibility and some amount of pandemic fatigue for our inability to mitigate the virus effectively. Still, with numbers on the rise and the 72% of cases statewide occuring in those under the age of 54, it's difficult to understand the logic of certain aspects of state and local leadership. With superspreader events popping up every few days, it would seem that Nashville is determined to stay in this holding pattern that has left independent artists in the lurch, as well as hospitality and service professionals.
Over the last week, Davidson County has averaged 269 new confirmed cases per day (38.8 for every 100,000 residents). Over the next year, this translates to around 98,000 cases and an estimated 490,000 infections (70.8% of the population). With 352 deaths in Davidson County alone and 3,322 lives lost to Covid 19 across the state, respiratory illness has become the third leading cause of death statewide in 2020, after heart disease, which kills 14,725 people annually and cancer, which claimed the lives of 13,931 people.
At this moment (12pm, 11/2), according to the Metro Nashville Health Department, there are 2,415 active Covid-19 cases in Davidson County. There are 17% of hospital beds available and only 14% of ICU beds available for those who may require hospitalization across the state.
