I can’t find the article at the moment, but supposedly some asshats snuck into an ICU with cameras to try to prove that they really weren’t full.

Regular beds can easily be flipped to an ICU bed. I have no idea why this is never mentioned.

Bless your heart, you don't know what you're talking about.
So you are arguing that hospitals in general are at or near capacity and can’t take on new Covid patientsas a widespread issue?
Good luck with that.
I agree that finding enough clinicians will be an operational but doable headache.

I'm not arguing. I know what I'm talking about.
You don't just wave a magic wand and create ICU beds. You can wave a magic wand and convert Med/Surg units, even cardiac units to COVID units, but not ICU units.
And ICU nurses ain't floor nurses. The gap is wide and deep.

Never mind. We are talking past each other. I know what a traditional ICU bed is and it’s too bad you thought I was being literal about expanding that. Seriously, I’m done with this.
