Austria warned on Friday that all its Covid-19 intensive care beds could be full within two weeks because of the “much stronger, more serious” second wave of coronavirus infections, Reuters reports.
There was a sharp drop to 6,464 new infections within 24 hours from a record 7,416 the day before, but Health Minister Rudolf Anschober said the number was still alarming.
“The second wave is much stronger, more serious, more dynamic and more powerful,” he told a news conference.
Forty-one people died in the latest reporting period, and 421 were in intensive care.
