RE:YOU DON'T GET 99% SURVIVAL IF HOSPITALS ARE FULL
RE:YOU DON'T GET 99% SURVIVAL IF HOSPITALS ARE FULLEd;
What you mean, I think, is that the survival rate
will diminish if hospitals greatly exceed capacity.
Hospitals can slightly exceed nominal capacity
and with doctors and nurses working overtime the
needs of patients can be taken care of.
At a certain point, as the patient count rises, a decision
may made, as in wartime, to triage patients based on age
and condition and let older, unhealthy and weaker patients
die.
Some USA towns are on the edge of this now especially
in south Texas.
