Can we also add a hospital bed tracker? Seems like they are nearing capacity in Houston, Yakima and maybe a county or two in California.

Hospital beds is not a very valuable statistic because it’s not a fixed resource. Hospitals can remove elective procedures or transfer them to other facilities, can add surge capacity, and/or can go above surge capacity by reformatting non-ICU beds into ICU beds. Hospitals try to maximize ICU usage during the best of times from a fiscal perspective, so % utilized at any given time is not informative without a lot of context.

Don’t know about the others, but Baylor in Harris County is not really close to nominal capacity.
