This is the right point of view. If you start building hospitals now, you might have a chance when the wave hits. By now, such a post will not get some downvotes as reality trickled in. Have a look at the state of capacity in Italy: it's closed to maxed out with lots of improvised wards.

Probably not unless you have popup / prefab hospitals. > Have a look at the state of capacity in Italy: it's closed to maxed out with lots of improvised wards. Italy is not "close to maxed out", it's way overcapacity. It might seem like it's at capacity if you count the total number of ICU beds in the entire country, but most of the cases for now are in the north, so the actual radio is way higher. Lombardia was at ~200% capacity circa wednesday.

Google Translate: "«We have very few free places in intensive care, now we are in the order of 15 or 20 available. Every day we get someone new, tomorrow 3 more arrive and San Raffaele is creating an area with 14 seats which will be ready, however, in a week. Today we recover them by closing the operating rooms, where there are respirators that can also be used to support the breath »."
- baq 7y agodon't know about you but that sounds like way over designed capacity...
- chinathrow 7y agoSure if you look at "designed" capacity. I was looking at "current" capacity, which is all what matters in this situation.
