A medical worker tends to a Covid patient in a negative pressure room in the ICU at UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester, Mass., on Jan. 4. Critical care facilities in Massachusetts measured at high levels of stress, one step short of extreme, in early January.In Maryland, Covid patients are now filling 42 percent of the state’s adult intensive care unit beds, the highest rate in the nation.
These are just two states where the share of Covid patients in ICUs are growing, and ICUs report that more than 80 percent of their beds are in use, a pandemic record. As of Wednesday, the share of ICU beds given to adult patients with Covid had increased in three-fourths of the country, as more people require aid in highly stressed critical care facilities, according to an NBC News analysis of data from the Department of Health and Human Services.
These maps show hospital ICU stress levels among adults and track how they have changed over time. They will be updated daily.
