Geisinger Hospitals Hit Record Capacity as Virus Surge Strains Care System

Geisinger’s Lackawanna and Luzerne counties hospitals are operating above 100% capacity amid a surge in respiratory viruses (influenza, RSV and COVID-19) and more patients choosing Geisinger as Commonwealth Health faces uncertainty; officials urge patients to seek appropriate care—primary care, telehealth, or urgent care—rather than defaulting to emergency departments for mild to moderate symptoms—to help relieve strain and ensure timely care for those with serious conditions.

"Rising Respiratory Illnesses Push New Hampshire Hospitals to Full Capacity"

New Hampshire hospitals are nearing full capacity due to a spike in respiratory illnesses, workforce shortages, and difficulties discharging patients to other healthcare facilities. Hospital officials are experiencing longer wait times in emergency departments, but are working to ensure patients receive care as quickly as possible. Despite the challenges, hospitals are fully staffed and prepared to handle the increased demand, with some implementing measures such as mandatory mask-wearing and virtual emergency room consultations.

"Airline Price Wars: $29 Flights Return as Off-Season Seating Demand Soars"

"Airline Price Wars: $29 Flights Return as Off-Season Seating Demand Soars"

Airlines are offering discounted fares as they try to fill a record number of seats this quarter, with Southwest Airlines offering one-way fares as low as $29. The increased capacity in the industry has led to more seats to fill, prompting airlines to drop last-minute fares or not raise them as much as usual. However, airlines are facing challenges in balancing off-season demand, as they typically generate the majority of their revenue during the busy spring and summer seasons. Despite falling fares, holiday demand remains strong, and airlines are adjusting their capacity deployment strategies to address shifting demand patterns. While promotional fares may stabilize next year, it is uncertain how inflation and hiring trends will impact future pricing strategies.

The Impact of Mideast Conflict on Oil Prices

Despite the recent Mideast conflict between Hamas and Israel, oil prices are unlikely to surpass $100 a barrel, according to veteran strategist Ed Morse. He believes that even if the war escalates and draws in Iran, there is still around 4.5 to 5 million barrels a day of spare capacity in the world that can be brought to the market. Another energy analyst, Pavel Molchanov, also thinks it is highly unlikely that Iran will engage in a war with Israel. While Molchanov predicts oil reaching $100 a barrel within six months, the immediate threat of a significant price spike from the Mideast conflict seems unlikely.

SpaceX's Starlink Revolutionizes Internet Access Across the US

SpaceX has removed the waitlist for its Starlink satellite internet system in the US, thanks to improved capacity provided by the second-generation Starlink satellites. The company has been steadily expanding capacity by launching additional satellites, and the recent launch of 22 more satellites allowed the last remaining holdouts on the waitlist to gain access. While some subscribers still report slower speeds, the second-gen satellites promise faster internet, and SpaceX is preparing to sell next-generation dish hardware for even better performance.

"Autzen Stadium's Ranking in Big Ten's Largest Stadiums Revealed"

Autzen Stadium, home of the Oregon Ducks, will be one of the smaller stadiums in the Big Ten conference when the Ducks join in 2024. With a capacity of 54,000, it is smaller than many of its Big Ten counterparts. However, the unique atmosphere and traditions at Autzen, such as the "Shout," contribute to an environment that feels much larger than its capacity suggests. Other Big Ten stadiums range in capacity from 47,130 to 107,601, with Beaver Stadium and Michigan Stadium being the largest.

Asylum seekers forced to camp outside Roosevelt Hotel due to relief center capacity

Asylum seekers are camping outside the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City for a second night after being told that the relief center is at capacity. They are waiting in the heat and rain without answers about what comes next. The situation became contentious as some asylum seekers pushed to get inside the hotel while workers tried to manage the crowd. The city spokesperson stated that while all adults were offered a temporary place to wait off the sidewalks, some chose to sleep outside. The spokesperson also emphasized the need for help from state and federal partners and encouraged migrants to consider placements available outside of New York City.

Kylie Jenner's Met Gala After-Party Woes and Backlash.

Kylie Jenner was unable to enter a crowded Met Gala after-party at the Box due to overcapacity. She arrived after midnight to meet her sister Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny, but the door was closed due to the chaotic scene caused by over 100 people clamoring to get in. Kylie was a VIP and waited to be escorted in through a side door, but she got out of her car prematurely and decided to go home instead. Janelle Monae and Evan Mock were also turned away due to the door being closed. Around 200 people were turned away from the party, and the cops showed up to manage the crowds. Those who made it inside included Gisele Bündchen, Emily Ratajkowski, Mary J Blige, Lil Nas X, Paris Hilton, and Bee Carrozzini.
