According to the criteria proposed by Chinese National Health Commission, confirmed COVID-19 patients who met any of the five following criteria 2 were included as severe cases: 1) dyspnoea or respiratory frequency ≥30/min; 2) pulse oxygen saturation (SPO2) ≤93% without oxygen therapy in resting state; 3) PaO2:FiO2 ratio <300; 4) lung infiltrates >50% within 24-48 hours; 5) respiratory failure, septic shock, and/or multiple organ dysfunction. To our knowledge, it is the first time that critical care for severe COVID-19 was described from the perspective of identification, organization and resources using data from a population based study, where a significant lower case-fatality rate was observed than that reported elsewhere.	./cache/cord-354164-tlmfn4bm.txt	./txt/cord-354164-tlmfn4bm.txt
