Austria is using ICU bed occupancy as a key metric now. This was used to justify the most recent lockdown. The publicised critical point is 33% of ICU bed capacity occupied by COVID patients. This page has the data [1].
What I now believe is missing, and would like to see, is the number of ICU COVID patients who are vaccinated and unvaccinated, as well as an age group breakdown. This is the type of data required to make informed decisions. If I had a teenage child, I’d be wanting to understand the true likelihood of them contracting COVID and ending up in an ICU bed, in order to make a decision about vaccinating them against it.
