I saw data posted yesterday that indicated Italy’s ICU beds capitulated about 10 days after the first death.

I did some back of the envelope math the other night.

The ICU Patient days will likely exceed 1.4 million.

There are about 18,600 free days across the country. (Assumes we are 80% occupied—which is unrealistically low.)

If it breaks...the hospitals won’t make it three or four days. Urban areas will be the worst.

Get thee to the countryside.
