CHARLESTON, S.C. (WIS) - With just three weeks until some South Carolina students go back to school, MUSC Children’s Hospital says their hospital and ICU are full.
“We are up to our eyeballs in sick and injured children and that is a scary situation,” Dr. Elizabeth Mack said.
Dr. Mack said what she is seeing across MUSC Children’s Hospital is also happening at children’s hospitals across the country.
She said in addition to the injuries and hospitalizations associated with the summer months like near-drownings or car accidents, they are seeing a steady spread of illnesses that typically spread in the colder months.
