The health department further indicated that as of April 14, some 64.61 percent or 3,406 of 5,272 isolation beds, and 65.58 percent or 2,376 of 3,623 ward beds in NCR are likewise occupied.
Overall, it noted that the bed occupancy rate for the whole NCR reached 66.6 percent, with 6,448 of the total 9,676 beds in use.
DOH classifies occupancy levels for COVID-19 beds in health centers as either critical, high risk, moderate, and safe.
Under the critical level, hospitals have already reached more than 85 percent of their bed occupancy for COVID-19 patients.
Hospitals are classified as high risk if 70 percent but not more than 85 percent of its COVID-19 beds are occupied, while those with a COVID-19 bed capacity of 60 to 70 percent rate are classified as moderate.
Hospitals fall under the safe level if their bed utilization rate is less than 60 percent.
