As novel coronavirus cases in Florida continue to soar, 49 hospitals across the state have reached full intensive care unit (ICU) bed capacity. That's according to the latest report from Florida's Agency For Health Care Administration.

The ICUs in at least three Florida counties—Nassau, Okeechobee and Putnam—were said to have reached full bed capacity.

... More than a third (23) of Florida's 67 counties were reported to have less than 10 ICU beds available.

Eight hospitals in Miami-Dade, the state's most populous county, were reported to have hit full ICU bed capacity, with only around 15 percent of their total ICU beds available.
