CenturyLink field hospital to be dismantled, sent to state with greater need
Governor Jay Inslee announced Wednesday the field hospital established at the CenturyLink Field Event Center will be taken down and sent elsewhere.
The announcement comes just two days after the Department of Defense said the field hospital would be opening this week.
The hospital was meant to treat non-coronavirus patients in an effort to ease the burden on local hospitals, but at this point, it's unclear if the hospital treated any patients.
Gov. Inslee said the field hospital will be deployed to another state facing a more significant need but didn't say which state specifically.
