From what I understand the hospitals would already be back logged with regular cases without Covid. This is something people warned about early on.

Sure, you still have heart attacks and broken arms during a pandemic.
They're absolutely full because of Covid. There are 155 Covid patients in the hospitals here. They require alot of staff and PPE which stretches the hospital thing.
I don't understand trying to downplay the situation. It's not at a breaking point, but it's not something to hand wave.
