That number sounds a little too low for me. I think they are talking about a sub unit within the hospital ( a non-ICU unit ) that did have 24 beds, being converted into an ICU with 24 beds......

See below they are talking about over 100 ICU beds in total. The commentary must be about an area of the hospital in particular..

As of March 31, most of the 110 ICU beds within the entire hospital have been converted or are in the process of being converted into negative pressure rooms to care for patients with COVID-19.

“Right now, we have over 100 COVID-19 ICU patients throughout the hospital,” Umesh K. Gidwani, MD, MS, FACC, FCCM, director of the cardiac ICU at Mount Sinai Hospital and associate professor of cardiology, pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, told Healio. “The vast majority of them have severe respiratory failure and are intubated. Those who are not intubated are getting some form of noninvasive ventilation. This is a very sick group of people across the hospital. The hospital is well on its way to becoming an almost completely COVID hospital.”
