Now I live in Tennesee. Did live in Michigan.
The Queens Hospital Center emergency department has a capacity of 60, but on its worst night of the coronavirus pandemic, more than 180 patients lay on stretchers in the observation bays and hallways. Alarms rang incessantly as exhausted doctors rushed from crisis to crisis.

Less than 4 miles away, a temporary hospital opened the next morning, on April 10. The facility, which was built at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center to relieve the city’s overwhelmed hospitals, had hundreds of beds and scores of medical professionals trained to treat virus patients.

Good old bureaucracy hard at work again.

"Communication failures"? Heads should roll!
 

If the point is that various factions of our government vastly overreacted in some arenas and vastly underreacted in others, I doubt there will be any arguments.

Chalk the hospital snafu up to the fog of war.
 
woweee-- there's been a mess up there of organisement- how come there wasnt more doctors working
in this luxury building ? 79 patients its just laughable if it wasnt so dreadful , what did they hope to fill this huge building with ?? heads should roll with top dogs .
 
We see hospital releasing patients that have been there for three months, Can anyone take a guess on how much the bill is for three months most of which are in intensive care?
