The omicron variant is fueling another COVID-19 surge and Massachusetts hospitals will be instructed to push back non-essential elective procedures, but Gov. Baker wants the public to know he does not view the current trends as a repeat of last winter.

"We've lost 500 acute care beds in Massachusetts because of staffing shortages, so by providing the non-medical side , it will hopefully allow them the capacity and the ability to open up additional beds," Sudders said.
