The issue as you highlighted is correct. We lack intensivists. In terms of ventilators and critical care beds, the US is actual well ahead of most other countries. https://sccm.org/Blog/March-2020/United-States-Resource-Availability-for-COVID-19 https://sccm.org/Blog/March-2020/United-States-Resource-Avai... The reason people think we have fewer beds per capita is because they are counting regular hospital beds and don't include beds available in outpatient facilities. What I was unable to find out is how many intensivists per capita are available per country. If anyone can find that data, I'd be curious to see it.
