Just a point on the comment "~1/2 their ICU cases dying".
The University Hospital handles most of the cases (and all except two deaths). According to their statistics* a total of 25 have been in ICU ("Á gjörgæslu frá upphafi"), total of 13 on ventilators from the beginning ("Í öndunarvél frá upphafi"), with as-of yesterday 3 still on ventilators ("Í öndunarvél") and 6 deaths ("Andlát samtals vegna Covid-19"). So that's less than a quarter of ICU cases dying and half of those on vents.

- Retric 7y agoInteresting, putting that may people in ICU that don’t need vents likely relates to a less stressed medical system. But the numbers are low enough it could just be statistical noise.
