I worry about the San Mateo numbers. When "staffed" beds are used up, what happens? Is this where "crisis standards of care" kick in (whatever that means). I assume the care is substandard in either one or two ways:
1) Staff are pulled in from other functions in the medical system, meaning that the care givers might not have as much experience in COVID care.
2) The same staff care for more people than is normally allowed.
