Most states will face a shortage of intensive care unit (ICU) doctors as the coronavirus pandemic continues to hit the U.S., according to research released last week.

Last week, the researchers' State Hospital Workforce Deficit Estimator, used to track each state's healthcare workforce numbers, said that five states were facing shortages.
