Hospital beds capacity data #549

Open zbraniecki opened 4 years ago

zbraniecki commented 4 years ago

The flattening the curve approach is defining the concept of medical system capacity which, when exceeded, leads to substantial collapse of the curing capacity and in return skyrocketing of deaths.

It would be great to look for sources of data to provide information on capacity of the medical system, and since it's changing (regions are pushing for increasing it, to give more space for the flattened curve), it should be a data point per date.

An example of a project that uses the data point - https://projects.propublica.org/graphics/covid-hospitals

This is something we are definitely interested in including. There are a few resources we've gathered that could be rolled in, one of which was via COVID Act Now.

Also, maybe as a follow up - capacity of ICU and number of ventilators available.

This chart seems to have some data for hospital beds, ICU and ventialtors for USA and USA states. https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections
