I also don't know if the people they transferred would still be infectious. I'm sure some of them likely were and some of them weren't. We don't know the percentages at this point, though.

I don't think it was particularly wise, but again, the hospitals themselves were stressed with critical patients. As to why the Comfort wasn't used, I don't know. It was supposed to be for non-COVID patients, then positive patients were transferred on board. I'm not going to disagree that it was a mess.

Their ICUs were so overwhelmed that people that normally would get an isolation room were in hallways. Given that those are the people at the most acute risk in a triage situation, that's a pretty serious lack of resources.

Ideally, you would like for every patient to be hospitalized, isolated, and have one-on-one care, but that's not realistic.

This is a 1,000 percent wrong.
