"Despite New York City’s COVID-19 case numbers surpassing all-time records in recent days, the latest surge has generally been manageable for local hospitals, so far." (-Gothamist, as of Dec. 22.)
Intensive care capacity percentage full as of Dec. 27:
Bronx County 78%
Nassau County 67%
Suffolk County 72%
New York County 81%
Kings County 84%
Queens County 69%
Those numbers are expected to rise, as the Omicron variant peaks, but the majority of intensive care patients are unvaccinated, or elderly with co-factors. |
