A Massachusetts hospital system runs out of ICU beds

A Massachusetts hospital system runs out of ICU beds


UMass Memorial Health, the largest hospital system in Central Massachusetts, ran out of intensive care beds this week.

Dr. Eric Dickson, president and chief executive of the system, said the situation is dire.

"I’ve been an emergency physician in [Worcester] for three decades, and I’ve never seen it this bad," Dickson said. "It’s creating enormous challenges in Central Mass., with COVID still on the rise."
