U.S. Army Corps of Engineers work to convert 10,000 hotel and dorm rooms to hospitals in New York as military expands role
With tens of millions of Americans on
lockdown and more expected, the United States military is likely to take
on a greater role in helping to stop the spread of the coronavirus in
the coming days and weeks.
The US Army
Corps of Engineers is looking at converting more than 10,000 rooms in
New York, potentially in hotels and college dorms, into medical care
units to help address the fast-spreading coronavirus, the commanding
general of the Army Corps said on Friday.
President Trump on Friday declared New York State a major disaster area as the number of confirmed coronavirus cases skyrockets and New York City was declared the epicenter of the US outbreak by Mayor Bill de Blasio.
