I've been wondering what the "normal" backlog of ships waiting to be unloaded looks like. And it makes sense that it would be cyclical / seasonal. It would be easy for the msm to say "look at this!" and most people would have no idea what normal is.
Same with hospitalizations. Reporting a hospital is 97% full - uh yeah, that's the goal. You don't want an empty hospital if you are going to pay the bills. No one would ever say what a "normal" hospital capacity was pre-covid.
Also - hospitals have bed classifications that 'flex' with need. How you designate those beds affects reimbursement and staffing requirements. You can say your 6-bed ICU is 'full', however, if needed, you can flex an additional 20 beds to ICU beds by adjusting equipment and staffing levels. Lies, damn lies, and .. you know the thing.

I've been saying the same thing since the images of ships being unloaded first started to be posted here.
Showing me that a bunch of ships are waiting to get unloaded means nothing if I have no baseline for comparison.
It may be an actual problem, or we may be getting set up for TP round 2.
