Hola Amigo! REgarding potential markets for FLXT beds: "Harrington and colleagues studied trends in all types of long-term residential care facilities from 1990 to 2002. While the proportion of nursing home beds to population declined, the actual number of licensed nursing home beds increased modestly, by 7 percent. The actual number of residential care and assisted living beds increased by 97 percent. Overall, the number of all types of long-term care beds increased by 7.8 percent, from 2.3 million in 1990 to 2.9 million in 2002." and acute care: Hospital beds per 1,000 people USA 3.5 (1.0 million) France 8.1 Cuba 4.6 Israel 6.3 U.S. market approx. 4 mil beds between acute and chronic care. I am assuming that the 200k beds figure refers to yearly production, although they need to clarify that vs. a 5 year output. Regards Brogan
