MOUNT PLEASANT, SC — COVID-19 hospitalizations continued to decline nationally, but the country still needs time to get back to pre-omicron variant hospital occupancy levels.

Around 128,500 inpatient beds were being used for COVID-19 patients as of Feb. 1, which was a drop of more than 20,000 beds from the prior week, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

State health officials in South Carolina reported to the federal government Feb. 1 that approximately 7,885 percent of inpatient beds and 7,689 percent of intensive care unit beds in hospitals across the state were occupied. Around 973 percent of inpatient beds and 7,689 percent of ICU beds statewide were filled by COVID-19 patients, they reported.
