Yes.

Excerpt:

Texas doesn’t have statewide guidelines for critical care and triage, which means that caregivers are left to their own local organizing. But tough times like the ones brought on by low vaccination rates and the delta variant require a re-examination of priors. This fourth wave of Covid hospitalizations differs from all the others, because almost everyone who is severely ill is also unvaccinated. In Texas, more than 12,800 people are in the hospital because of Covid-19, and between 93 and 98 percent of them are unvaccinated.

It’s tempting to blame this wave not on the virus but on the people who didn’t get their shots. “This has been bubbling up—this anger, this frustration, this fear, this worry. Every day, we’re seeing the ascent of the curve. Now it’s the steepest it’s ever been,” Fine says. “So I and the other leaders of the task force, we decided, you know, these numbers are not looking good. These questions are coming up."

    Yeah self indulgent libs will see it that way. They're trying to find an "easy" way out. This entire scenario is a result of decades of systemic neglect, and can't be undone quickly. Mandating the vaccine might cause some chuds to bomb buildings or something, so they're trying to push American personal responsibility nonsense against the chuds and use it against them. I don't think it will work.
