[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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] Lol, I wish. That’s not even close to remotely accurate. See: https://data.oecd.org/healtheqt/hospital-beds.htm [/quote] That’s a different metric. Your numbers show hospital beds per thousand. The chart shows critical care beds (which is what matters most now) per 100,000. I’ve seen the same numbers cited by multiple sources. [/quote] There are a total of 46,500 ICU beds in this country. Total, not currently empty. If 30% of americans get the virus then by current estimates that means 5 million will need intensive care. [/quote]
