Well you will be pleased to know that the corporation over my husband’s franchise said on Friday that employees can wear masks they bring from home (per legal). Well, I guess there was a kerfluffel over that advice, because now corporate will be providing masks next as well as a person to teach how to don/doff properly 👍 They’ve already been using gloves.

Coronavirus patients delivered to hospital ship Comfort in New York by mistake: US officials

By Lucas Tomlinson | Fox News
EXCLUSIVE - Multiple patients infected with coronavirus were transferred to the hospital ship Comfort from the Javits Center in New York by mistake, three U.S. officials tell Fox News.

The number of Covid-19 patients brought on board the hospital ship was estimated to be “less than five,” one official said.

This information has not been previously reported.

The patients were transferred sometime Friday, according to the officials. At the time the patients were transferred to the hospital ship Comfort, the initial screening did not indicate they were positive, officials said.

The hospital ship is located on Pier 90 on Manhattan’s west side and arrived in New York Monday. The vessel has a “couple dozen” patients on board right now, according to chief Pentagon spokesman Jonathan Hoffman.

Part of the protocol before receiving patients onboard Comfort is for a coronavirus test to be performed. The swab test came back hours later, but not before the patients had spent a night onboard the vessel, which is only supposed to treat trauma patients, not Covid-19 positive patients.

We saw this one coming, didn’t we?

Glad that corporate is now allowing them to wear their masks.
