The data is right in your graph. Right now it's almost 1.5K infections per day, it's about a 3 week doubling rate. So 6K new infections / day in 3-6 weeks - at almost any % of those needing hospitalizations, they will be overwhelmed.

Whatever Sweden did at the end of June, where you can see a precipitous drop - they will obviously have to do again.
