Canada has fewer intensive care beds than almost anyone else in the developed world
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international body roughly comprising all the world’s developed liberal democracies. When ranked against its OECD contemporaries, Canada currently comes fourth last in terms of intensive care beds available per capita (only Chile, Sweden and Colombia ranked lower). Canada had just 1.97 ICU beds for every 100,000 residents. The top-ranked country, Japan, had 7.74 beds per 100,000.
