Why the island needs not just more beds but clear answers as flu cases rise

Answer

Is Mallorca’s flu season getting worse right now?

Reported flu cases in the Balearic Islands have risen, and Mallorca is responding by preparing more hospital capacity. That does not mean every emergency department is already full, but it does suggest the system is under growing pressure. The concern is not only the number of beds, but whether enough staff and clear procedures are in place to support them.
