The greatest differences between protocols occur at moderate levels of scarcity (i.e. ~0.5 beds per patient), and differences between protocols decline at both high and low levels of scarcity.

While there is significant variance in numbers of lives and life years saved, there is a strong positive correlation between each statistic for all protocols.
