They didn’t have to restrict their lives and suffer quite as bad of an economic downturn as everyone else. And they did the logical thing, which was try to protect the most at risk while allowing others to go on about life with social distancing measures. Your post is a good one with respect to mortality stats. The hospitalization rate concerns me a lot more.

I’d like to see more numbers on the % of hospitalized that have an underlying health issue. NYC numbers were striking. This is looking more like a personal/ individual health issue . Still potential to flood hospitals , but it seems like they’ve ramped up capacity to deal with it.

Comorbidity drives hospitalizations as was covered well in the Time article earlier this week. But making sure our hospitals have capacity to deal with Covid and regular patients is probably the best metric for being open and how much to be open.

There are no good numbers for that nationally and it would be a dumb national number to average across the country. What I was saying is that hospitalization rate or ICU beds available would be probably the best measure of entry into and progression through phased opening, regionally. For example, if your region has 10% capacity or less, close because things are about to get dire, 10-20, open with lots of restrictions. 20-40, open with fewer restrictions. Etc. That ensures the health care system can deal with this. If Covid is going to be around for a while and it clearly is, health care is going to be the limiting resource. It would seem that defining the staged opening with respect to that makes the most sense. In my area, we still have a fair amount of capacity even though deaths are steady, but our governor has defined phased opening according to positive tests per population, which is a B word to achieve especially as testing capacity increases (hopefully). So our healthcare system will have massive capacity long before we ever reach our positive test threshold. Edited April 26, 2020 by shoshin 1

You are talking about from a capacity/utilization aspect so that we can gauge preparedness for outbreaks as one of the metrics that should be considered. To see what areas can begin phasing in the workforce. Correct?

To see what areas can begin phasing in the workforce. Correct? Yes. Mortality is not the best metric to measure success in dealing with this and reopening. It’s a good measure to know for sure because if it’s high then we have more serious consequences for spread of Covid. It’s just not the measure that makes sense to control opening. Currently mortality is the only decent measure of progress we have but it’s a big macro number not without its own problems.
