The hospital system was pretty much running at capacity even before the pandemic. That's how it's designed. In government's mind there's no use paying for beds to sit empty for years, nor having loads of doctors/nurses on standby.
Obviously you can have plans in place to ramp up if required, but you can't train doctors/nurses overnight. You can try and get them from overseas which we are doing, but we are competing in a global market there too.
