Re: An elephant in the room

But it's bad, very, very bad. See for example this story about another 'crisis'-

Which contains much waffle, but precious little truth. And it'd be a simple truth to explain, ie simple bed occupancy rates across UK hospitals. Beds available vs beds occupied. It's a common metric hospitals use for capacity reporting & planning, and presumably something the Bbc's 'world class' journalists could find out.. if they chose to.

The bed occupancy rates have nothing to do with this article. The article is not talking about a crisis - it is challenging the deliberately misleading videos uploaded on Twitter and others which make overrun hospitals look deserted, and getting the correct information about two or three of them from the hospitals themselves.

So what is so "bad, very very bad" about this?
