Figure 1. Availability of ICU Beds for Patients with Covid-19 and Hospitalization Trends in the ICU, February 23 through April 27, 2020.
All patients with Covid-19 hospitalized in the ICU were receiving mechanical ventilatory support. On February 28, and again on March 3, 9, 11, 13, and 19, new intensive care departments were dedicated to patients with Covid-19 and were filled within 72 hours. When ICUs began to overflow, some less-sick patients had to remain at home, where several of them died.
