Many believe the most dreaded words in a hospital are ‘Code Blue, they are wrong. Although serious, they are not even close to those that strike fear in the most hardened hospital administrator: “We are about to exceed ‘Surge Capacity'”.

This is not a logline. Protagonist, antagonist, conflict, stakes, in a single sentence 20-30 words. No vague notions. Be specific about who the characters are and what they want/need to do.
As mrliteral said.
As an additional note, I had no idea that ‘Code Blue’ are the most dreaded words in a hospital. Why should I know that?
Surely this is still a situation that does actually occur and, albeit rare, is still planned for and has a protocol to be followed. Without having the elements mrliteral mentioned, it’s very difficult to know what the story actually is here and, more importantly, why is this a story worth telling.
Who is the lead character?
What is their goal?
What is standing in their way?
