    Why?

    Maybe when you stop repeating lies you make up, you'll find people will treat you more like a human being, and less like something they trod in.

    Do you think we should get a covid-19 test while we're at it?

    Of those, just over 4,000 are ICU or HDU.
    Yup, UK ICU capacity (NHS statistical data from Jan 2020):

    There were 4,123 adult critical care beds open and 3,423 occupied, giving an
    occupancy rate of 83.0%. This is higher than the occupancy rate observed last month, which was
    75.3%, and lower than in January 2019 (85.3%).

    ~700 ICU beds in total, that is below 10% of what Italy is on now
