Hospitals are almost always close to max ER capacity. ERs are expensive and they don’t run a lot of excess capacity. So most hospitals almost always run at 90% capacity. An extra handful of patients in the ER will max them out. That said, they have the capacity to expand that by another 25% or so quite easily if needed.
Saying ERs are maxed out is just word games and fear porn.
You need to draw a picture for Toot.... with crayons preferably
Well the hospital administrations are saying it and the newspaper is printing it and the talking heads on local tv are preaching it. There is that to consider. The Lafayette, Louisiana area hospitals are also reporting maxed out. I guess they just ran out of room .

What we've learned from history is that we haven't learned from it.
