This pandemic specifically requires assistance breathing for a huge amount of people. I'm not sure how closely that correlates to hospital beds, but it could be a big issue in the US where many hospital-like things are dealt with by urgent care.
- _-___________-_ 7y ago> This pandemic specifically requires assistance breathing for a huge amount of people. Most estimates of the ratio of asymptomatic/minor-symptoms people are >=80%.
- bildung 7y agoWhat is the overall infection prognosis for the US? For Germany it is expected that 60 to 70% of the population will get Covid-19. Assuming 65% for the US, that would mean 214M infected, say over 2 years (and assuming linearity, which is naive) and each critical case needing care for a month, we are talking about nearly 18M critical cases per month. So yes, a huge amount of people.
