South Korea also has 4x as many hospital beds per 1000 people as Italy does.
They still suffered a shortage of hospital beds in the hard-hit area around Daegu, so much so that some people died while waiting.
Italy and other countries with fewer hospital beds will have to resort to what China did: build makeshift hospitals, fast.
