How are you measuring it? What metric would you like to compare?

My comment does not conflate the two. You’re reaching. Every winter (flu season) exerts extra pressure. It doesn’t take much to push hospitals over the edge.

One metric that's interesting: what the market is offering for temporary contracts for traveling nurses. Past flu seasons haven't seen contracts of $10k+ per WEEK for ICU nurses.
