The idea of field hospital is to move non covid related patients to the file hospitals and let the regular hospital to be covid only. This way there is much smaller chance to get covid while getting routine medical care. Reliable source told me medical facility utilization rates aredown more than 50% in non covid hot spot area. People are simply deferring non emergency medical service. They are also not so sure if they need to quarantine non symptomatic covid case away from home, like china did. So the field hospitals are built as an option if needed.
- taurath 6y agoIts not that people are deferring medical service, they are being deferred. I have a friend who needs brain surgery to remove a cancerous tumor, and its deferred until non-emergency surgeries can open up.
- sjg007 6y agoWeird, cancerous brain tumor should be an emergency one would think.
- astronautjones 6y agoLots of people that just lost their jobs & insurance (and can't afford COBRA) are deferring medical service.
