Projections from UT Southwestern on future COVID-19 hospitalizations in Dallas County - August 10

Portions of August 10 commentary

"Hospitalization growth has slowed in the region, and while further increases are predicted over the next several weeks, a flatter trajectory is also possible. Most concerning is that admissions in patients over the age of 65, who often experience more severe disease, continue to grow quickly across most counties. The Dallas County Health and Human Services COVID-19 risk level is still orange, and Tarrant County Public Heath's advisory is still high. Indoor masking is strongly encourage for everyone at this time. Based on these trends, our medium-term forecast predicts that hospitalizations are still on a longer uptrend and could return to elevated levels by late August if trends persist."

"Based on current CDC "COVID-19 Community Levels" guidance, which considers hospital admissions and capacity, Dallas, Tarrant, and Collin Counties are now high risk, meaning that indoor masking is currently recommended for everyone."
