New York Gov. Cuomo called on President Trump for construction of field hospitals to combat the coronavirus crisis: 'You could have people on (hospital) gurneys in hallways,' Cuomo warned.
The Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency could all request the Corps' help in setting up field clinics, a Defense Department official told NBC News. The agencies would lay out the exact scope of medical requirements..
Instead, the Corps would probably begin converting an existing building into a clinic capable of handling coronavirus patients, the official said. “I do think that the Army Corps will be involved in the construction of field hospitals to extend or expand the capacity of hospital beds around the country, especially if we look at some of the projected numbers of casualties by the summer,” said Ryan Burke, who served as a captain and logistics officer in the Marines and is now an associate professor in the Department of Military & Strategic Studies at the U.S. Air Force Academy.
“This is kind of an unprecedented situation,” Doubler told NBC News. “But there is a template for what they can or can’t do.”
