Cuomo says New York State has 55,000 beds and projects a need for about 110,000. His order to hospitals today to increase capacity by at least 50% will help get to about 75,000 beds.
Cuomo says if each hospital increased capacity by 100%, they'd have enough beds for the projected need of 110,000, though he understands that not feasible everywhere.
