It's a combination of higher than normal RSV rates and a reduction in the number of pediatric beds.

A triple whammy of RSV, COVID, and the flu.

Yea, this is the case. Our pediatrician said that a lot of the hospitalizations are due to a combo of RSV and flu or Covid. The two illnesses combined are just too much for the immune system.

Stay safe out there Mainers.
