📊 REVISIÓN DE DATOS: La Sobrecarga Hospitalaria 📊
Data and Metrics Posts en Español
¿Cómo se monitorea la sobrecarga hospitalaria inducida por COVID? Los investigadores monitorean la sobrecarga con una métrica: El % del total de camas hospitalarias ocupadas por pacientes con COVID-19. Ninguna métrica es perfecta, pero esta es bastante útil. Y según esta medida, las cosas se ven bastante sombrías en los hospitales del sur en este Read more…
