Minnesota doctors are sounding the alarm about the dire state of hospitals amid the recent surge of COVID-19 cases. On Wednesday, health care workers from across the state gathered in the Twin Cities to share stories about what it’s like where they work. Minnesota currently has the seventh highest COVID-19 infection rate in the country.
The doctors, including Dr. Heidi Thorson, a maternal and fetal medicine doctor, who treats unvaccinated expecting mothers at Allina Health, painted a grim picture of the reality of their ability to treat patients under the strain of the COVID surge on top of other illnesses.
