Less than a quarter of hospital beds for intensive care patients are now available in Florida as the state grapples with a spike in coronavirus cases, data provided by the state revealed on Thursday.
That troublingly low figure includes data from Broward County, Florida's second largest, which had just 20.9 percent of ICU beds ready at that time.According to the same data, 26 hospitals throughout Florida had no available ICU capacity. Miami-Dade, the state's most populous county, had three hospitals with no ICU beds available.
"Hospitals plan and prepare for surge, although that additional capacity is not reflected on the dashboard," Manderfield said in a statement. Also on Thursday, the state had an increase of more than 3,200 cases in the biggest single-day spike of this pandemic.
