> It will stop when our hospitals aren't stretched past their limits. I don't think anyone knows when that will be right now. My problem is simply the loose definition. Kate Brown didn't even say that much, I don't think. But if that's the metric, it should be easy enough to say so, and define it. E.g. "When ICU bed occupancy is below 90% and has declined for three consecutive weeks, the mandate is lifted." I think many people would quibble less about the mandates if they weren't open-ended.
