Hong Kong has no more inpatient bed capacity left. Yesterday (1/21) the Hong Kong Hospital Authority started tracking available Inpatient bed space. Some hospitals are running at 132% of capacity, the lowest number we have seen is 95% of capacity. Their entire hospital system is running close to 110% of capacity.
Hong Kong is primed to crash medically. So far, only the liberal use of antivirals has kept their H7N9 confirmable DETECTION numbers low. We expect H7N9 infection rates to go 7 TIMES higher as a result of the Chinese New Year Celebrations. STAY FAR AWAY FROM HONG KONG!
