How many people are in ICU in Ontario at the moment? I seem to recall that, before the expansion of capacity, Ontario had about 700 ICU beds.
At the moment there's 29 people in the ICU but if we look at other countries we can see how quickly the hospitaly capacity can get overwhelmed. Of those 700 beds not all can be for COVID patients because there are still patients that need the ICU from other issues such as a heartattack or car accidents.
