Number of ICU beds per 100k of population. Hat tip to elmatador: Message 32624160 It would be an interesting exercise to determine how many CV patients per 100k of them require ICU treatment because, obviously, once ICUs are overwhelmed, quality of care goes down no matter how many are available. This stat shows that, depending on location and availability, as well as health care worker status, we are probably but not necessarily in better shape than the ROW. Sorry for weasel language but there are lots of moving parts to the issue rather than simple number of available ICU beds.

Thanks. This is very exciting and promising. Another reason to be careful and avoid getting infected before they get their show straight. It seems, supplies of Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) are running low. I hope they don’t become unavailable by the time our medical-bureaucratic establishment bites the bullet and, perhaps, gives them an emergency approval. Under the circumstances, overwhelming anecdotal evidence - which is what we are seeing - should count for something. Would be moronic to sit around for months, waiting for their double blind studies (which, incidentally, would probably be cancelled anyway because of being unethical - if it appears that the medicated group of patient clearly does much better). This version has the video with the interview with dr. Grace. Very interesting. independentsentinel.com
