How do you explain this report from the New York Times:

The 1,000-Bed Comfort Was Supposed to Aid New York. It Has 20 Patients.
“It’s a joke,” said a top hospital executive, whose facilities are packed with Coronavirus patients.

The article you cite is decrying the byzantine military protocols required to get patients on to the Comfort. And also points out how NYC hospitals are overrun.

But you knew that as I’m sure you actually read the article.

The hospital ships are for trauma and not set up for Covid-19

That report is easy to explain.

The hospitals are needed for coronavirus patients and these facilities are not handling coronavirus patients. This has to change asap.

Non-coronavirus admissions are very low; people aren’t driving, so few acidents, and nobody in their right mind would go to the hospital now unless its absolutely necessary to save their life.

Comfort was supposed to take on non covid patients. Many were sent home and I imagine if able many chose to go home. As to the rest they’ve likely been isolated. As far as Covid in hospitals, my friend is a surgeon with privileges st Huntington Hospital in Suffolk County. 142 of their 267 beds are covid patients. 35 in ICU..20 on ventilators. This is a suburban hospital 35 miles from midtown. Anecdotal?? Sure
Another anecdotal. My friend is on chemo for Lymphoma. His infusion center is in Columbia Presbyterian in upper Manhattan. His oncologist has postponed his infusion because of the situation at CP caused by covid.

Those 2 hospital ships are only for overflow of non-CV patients. They do not want to contaminate those ships. I personally think we ARE being somewhat played by the Deep State and their media accolytes, and proof of it is that the hospitals are NOT swamped; prompting CBS News to bootleg a video from a swamped hospital in Italy, and palm it off as an Elmhurst NY Hospital. Thankfully, CBS’ hoax was exposed.

Easy. NYC hasn’t sent patients to the ship yet for whatever reason. Keep in mind, COVID-19 patients are *not* supposed to go to the Comfort.
