Imagine a big chunk of the population getting the flu at the same time, but this time actually staying at home.

The problem is many aren't even suffering flu like symptoms. Staff absence is indeed the major issue here as you state.
My local 700 bed hospital had only 16 covid patients in it a few days back and only 1 in ICU. However numerous staff were isolating.
I think (or hope) this is a period of transition with a brighter light at the end of the tunnel.
