Original Note:
These claims are false. 1. The number of ICU beds were significantly increased: https://www.wyccn.org/uploads/6/5/1/9/65199375/recovery_and_restitution_-_final.pdf#page=13 2. PCR cycles amplify genetic material so it can be more easily detected. If a test sample does not include viral genetic material to begin with, more cycles cannot somehow create it. https://www.genome.gov/about-genomics/fact-sheets/Understanding-COVID-19-PCR-Testing
