Study: There's No Good Time To Be In A COVID-19 ICU, But Some Times Are Worse Than Others

If you're unlucky enough to need a bed in an intensive care unit for COVID-19, cross your fingers that you'll get a bed at the right time.

That's because ICU patients treated during periods of increased demand are almost twice as likely to die compared to those treated in low-demand periods.

UPI reports intensive care units operating at 75% to 100% capacity were classified as 'high demand.'

'Low demand' was classified at less than 25% of capacity.
