Something strange is happening... Can we do a quick survey of ED staff?

Please comment on:
-Location
-What your ED census has been lately relative to normal
-Avg # of ICU pts per shift
-Avg # of intubations per shift this week.

Thanks! I’ll go first (below)

SF Bay Area, CA
ED census ~20% of normal
~0-2 ICU pts/shift
0 RSI/shift (have been trying to delay COVID-19 intubations to ICU but none have come in needing to be tubed immediately)

Unbelievable..are we actually flattening the curve here?!
