I have been doing some digging and unfortunately cannot find data prior to mid 2020 for most areas. This site https://data.statesmanjournal.com/covid-19-hospital-capacity... has information pertaining to capacity since then, for an incredible amount of hospitals.

Looking at the data for the available time period, I am not able to confirm your statement.

I don’t see any history in the site. How are you getting history?

The fact that hospitals did run out of capacity in many places in the world is indication enough to me that control measures were important, and hospitals having some capacity is hardly a measure of safety.

In the left column, if you click on the hospital name, it will show the history.
