A standard hospital stay in Ontario costs $5,364 and ICU stay is about 3x that of a general ward bed. That's another $289,656 of everyone's tax dollars at work, all completely preventable.
My question would be how much of this is created by the event, and how much just moved around. I mean those 52 hospitalizations might have gotten themselves drunk closer to home if they hadn’t come to Ezra St.
Of course it’s still a problem but it’s not totally clear to me that you can really attribute all of it to the specific location of the party.
