I've got no logical explanation unless the higher numbers of cases in NSW caused some issues in health care ot the higher percentage of hospitalised Victorian patients being admitted to ICU is improving outcomes.

Shared previously. Lots of doctors and nurses on twitter (with their blue ticks) also saying the same thing. Could be a contributing factor, system can't cope, people aren't getting the care needed..... Vic won't be any different once we hit 1000s.
Don’t believe the Covid coping spin, those on the road know the health system is in meltdown
