Chile is going back into Quarantine. So far this week about 14m out of 19m are now in quarantine, I guess the rest will follow shortly.
The reason for this is that there are almost no ICU beds available. Not surprising.
What is surprising is that there is nobody over the age of 70 in ICU. Patients under 50 in the ICU have grown by 94% in the last month and they represent 24% of the beds in use.
Each day of the new patients entering ICU 42% are under 50.
Now that's not good news since they are 2 or 3 weeks from vaccinating 40 - 50yrs and then you can add a few weeks for protection to be achieved.
