The beds aren't really anything special. "Beds" is code for capacity in an ICU ward with ICU level medical equipment and doctors/nurses trained to provide that level of care.

Any hospital bed + a ventilator is probably good enough. Sounds like the government and hospitals are putting in orders wherever they can.

But I imagine hospitals aren't going to buy slapped together untested products unless its really really bad.



There aren't nearly enough ventilators.


This isn’t a ventilator.


It's going to be really really bad in a few weeks.
