The tennis complex that hosts the U.S. Open will by next week become a field hospital to treat coronavirus patients — part of a race to build more beds and relieve New York City's health care facilities
NEW YORK — The tennis complex that hosts the U.S. Open will by next week become a field hospital to treat coronavirus patients — part of a race to build more beds and relieve New York City's health care facilities, where a top official said all indicators are “flashing red.”
The tennis facility will take patients from Elmhurst Hospital, which has been overwhelmed with gravely ill coronavirus patients. But it will not be able to treat people sick enough to be in the ICU. Elmhurst, which has intubated 42 patients in the past four days, is now offloading patients with other ailments to focus almost exclusively on coronavirus. Trauma patients are being moved as soon as they are stabilized. Besides Elmhurst, Queens hospital, Kings County, Coney Island, and Woodhull hospitals in Brooklyn, and Jacobi and Lincoln hospitals in the Bronx are all surging with Covid-19 patients.
New York City has also begun to shut down playgrounds to prevent crowding that could spread the illness. De Blasio has resisted calls to shut all playgrounds, but said Tuesday he has ordered 10 to be padlocked because they were repeatedly found to be too crowded.
