Health ministry data on hospital overcrowding riddled with errors 0
Are you safe-a wake up call about your Ministry of Health?
"Many industrialized countries keep occupancy rates at or below 85% so hospitals can safely care for patients when there’s a surge in demand. Studies and experts have linked overcrowded wards to higher death rates and outbreaks of superbugs.
But in Ontario, 87 of 151 hospitals were above 85% capacity the last three months of 2013, including 33 that topped 95% and 12 that were at or above 100". ( Our local hospital (BGH or Hamilton Niagara Haldimand Brant was at: 106%. )
The best defense is to protect yourself through a healthy safe lifestyle and good personal living environment
