Moved out of intensive care, into a regular hospital unit

The Ojai Raptor Center announced that Jackie has been moved out of their intensive care unit, where she needed oxygen therapy, and into one of their regular hospital care units. ORC was careful to frame this as one encouraging step, not an all-clear: in their words, it does not mean she is out of danger, and she remains a very sick patient who continues to need intensive treatment and around-the-clock monitoring. The move follows the rebound already reported earlier in the week, when her red blood cell count roughly doubled after Saturday's setback; the underlying cause of her anemia is still unknown. ORC again asked the public and media not to call, text, email, or visit for updates, and to follow their official channels instead.
