[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A ray of hope for the US, our high number of critical care beds. [img]https://specials-images.forbesimg.com/imageserve/5e6a0fadaa5428000759a47e/960x0.jpg?fit=scale[/img][/quote] True, but to throw a cloud in front of your ray of hope - those beds aren’t empty just waiting for people. I’d suspect at least half of the have critical care people in them. To do otherwise is wasteful from a business perspective. This is the problem with the virus and why such drastic steps are taken —— the healthcare system isn’t structured to support as many critical care patients as there will be if everyone gets sick at once. Hence ‘flatten the curve’. Otherwise hospital have to triage - or choose - which patients get a bed. [/quote]
