European healthcare systems face extreme pressure from coronavirus disease (COVID-19). We relate country-specific accumulated COVID-19 deaths (intensity approach) and active COVID-19 cases (magnitude approach) to measures of healthcare system capacity: hospital beds, healthcare workers and healthcare expenditure. Modelled by the intensity approach with a composite measure for healthcare capacity, the countries experiencing the highest pressure on 25 March 2020 - relative to Italy on 11 March - were Italy, Spain, the Netherlands and France (www.covid-hcpressure.org).
欧洲的医疗体系正面临着冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的巨大压力。我们将特定国家的累计 COVID-19 死亡人数(强度法)和 COVID-19 活跃病例数(数量法)与医疗体系容量的衡量指标联系起来:医院床位、医护人员和医疗支出。通过采用复合医疗能力衡量指标的强度法进行建模,在 2020 年 3 月 25 日(相对于 3 月 11 日的意大利),压力最大的国家是意大利、西班牙、荷兰和法国(www.covid-hcpressure.org)。
