Motivation edit
Wikidata already has useful properties to report statistics on the spreading of the COVID19 pandemic: number of hospitalized cases (P8049), number of cases number of cases (P1603), number of deaths number of deaths (P1120), number of recoveries number of recoveries (P8010).
Similarly, health care services also need to track the number of people in intensive care so as to assess the criticity of the crisis.
The property could equally be applied to any other disease or event such as heat wave.
