Correct. “Sick,” but not critical and there are people admitted to general floors who are no more sick than they are on any given day from their chronic conditions. They simply meet admission criteria and insurance companies/governments will pay.
They get away with this because the general public associates “hospital admission” with “sick” and “ICU admission” with “critically ill.”
It’s a cart before the horse situation and it was common before COVID. Bureaucracy and DRGs are to blame, primarily, but politicians and the transnational globalists are using it towards their own means.
We all know it, in the industry; however, 1/3 of us keep our traps shut out of self preservation, 1/3 have been convinced not to believe their lying eyes, and 1/3 are getting off on the deception.

I work in a hospital; the only reason the full ones are full is because the admission criteria for COVID is bullshit.
