You might say "better safe than sorry", and I agree with that to some extent. It's clear that hospitalizations need a larger reservoir of PPE, beds, etc. However, there are trade-offs if you're also keeping other people out of hospitals who could really benefit from treatment. — PolitiTweet.org

We know that COVID-19 cases *can* overwhelm hospitals if there are a great number of cases in one place at one time. See NYC and Lombardy. Even in NY, though, per Cuomo, the peak wasn't as high as the state's projections and some temporary hospitals were never/very lightly used. — PolitiTweet.org

Yeah, IMHE lowered various hospitalization numbers to around 1/3 to 1/5 of where they had been originally to make them match the actual data they were seeing. https://t.co/2uTXs2rJyV — PolitiTweet.org

@NateSilver538 What’s the best data on actual vs projected hospitalizations?
