I've been following the thread for a while but first post here.
It's interesting to look at the number of hospital beds per capita each country has. There certainly seems some correlation between the fatality rate and number of beds available
South Korea - 11.5 beds per 1000 people
Italy - 3.4 beds per 1000 people
Germany - 8.3 beds per 1000 people
France - 6.5 beds per 1000 people
Spain - 3.0 beds per 1000 people
UK - 2.8 beds per 1000 people (appears to have fallen to 2.5 beds more recently)
