^ that was more sensationalism after the death rate started to flatten. The ICU rate then declined after following the death rate. AZ never locked down like CA did. https://twitter.com/AlexBerenson/status/1291552713004777476 ^ Those charts so ICU rates dropping in TX which was supposed to be "Overwhelmed" just like AZ. |

Just look through the data here for AZ:

Similarly for Texas:

And pretty much any way you slice it, opening up prematurely resulted in a huge ballooning of cases, deaths and hospital/ICU bed utilization by late June, early July. Perhaps you should look to getting your news from more reliable sources than some dude on twitter with a clear agenda...
It also doesn't help when the Governor of TX was actively hiding data related to hospital bed availability, etc to mask the complete failure of his head-in-the-sand approach to leadership in the time of a major public health emergency [1]
