The Army Corp of Engineers has begun the installation of 4 FEMA emergency hospitals in NYC's Javits

Convention Center. Each hospital has 250 beds, and is 40,000 sq ft in size, so it will provide 1,000 beds in total. They will be built on the Center's main exhibit floor, which per Wikipedia is 840,000 sq ft. (There will also be 320 federal staff coming along, although I'm not quite sure what they'll be doing.) They're also considering the addition of another 1,000 beds which would be used for patients who need a less intensive level of care. They hope to have the initial facilities running within 10 days.

In addition, the ACE will be erecting 3 field hospitals inside of other buildings in the NYC area.

Governor Cuomo provided information on the work here:

There is something DEEPLY ironic about this.

God save everyone of us.

The MAGAts are going to enjoy seeing people die there.
