In Germany we currently have 28,000 beds in ICU (I expect we will try to increase this number ASAP). If (as expected) we have say 10% of the populace infected and 10% of them require intensive care we need 800,000 beds.
What happens to people who don't get proper care when they desperately need it? A lot of them will die.
If the measures result in less simultaneous infections it will save lifes for sure. The more of a delay we can achieve the better.
