Answer

Are extra hospital beds enough for the flu wave in Mallorca?

Extra beds help, but they do not solve the whole problem on their own. In Mallorca, the real pressure also comes from staffing, diagnostics, and the need to keep emergency and intensive care teams working smoothly. If outpatient care and testing are not strengthened as well, the system can still run into bottlenecks.
