A standard nursing degree in Europe takes three years. That's not a scientific law, it's not like it takes 365 * 3 * 2/3 = 17520 hours to learn how to be useful in an ICU. An LPN can be done in a year. We trained mechanical engineers in as little time during WWII.

If we're to treat this like an emergency, why aren't we treating it like an emergency?

Because in truth it probably never was. We assembled fully staffed field hospitals that went completely unused.
