- jacquesm 5y agoYes, you are wrong, it's not like those boats are permanently staffed, the staff is drawn from elsewhere. Besides that the red-tape around those ships effectively denied those with COVID from coming on board resulting in a grand total of 35 patients treated over the two ships combined. Effectively they were a net negative, if the staff assigned to the ships would have been made available to the hospitals on shore they would have been far more effective.
