PURPOSE
To investigate the ability of Canadian intensive care units (ICUs) and ventilators to handle widespread re-emergence of the swine-origin H1N1 virus in the context of an aggressive strategy of vaccination.
METHOD
Data collected during the first wave in Winnipeg, Manitoba, were applied to a variety of second wave pandemic models to determine potential ICU and ventilator demand.
RESULTS
For attack rates greater than 20% to 25%, significant shortages in ventilators may be expected… Expand
