I toured the Comfort when it first came out of the ship yard years and years ago.

“Getting series”
Contingency plans are meant to be serious and not often used.
Smart move.

A good friend was chief anesthesiologist on the Comfort during Gulf War I. He was very glad to have very few patients.

If it turns out that they really do need more beds in a hurry, I think there may be some cruise ships avail.

Lol! And some hotel rooms....
That said, I don’t think it’s very likely. But if the cities had any sense, they’d use this as a time to get their “homeless” population sorted out.

Not a cruise ship that has had coronavirus cases aboard.

They will not require weeks of retrofitting and cleaning.
Good suggestion.

In 1983 and 1984 I worked on the SS Worth a tanker that was built at the NASSCO in San Diego. It was converted to the USS Mercy.

"That is brilliant."
Yes, good use of Navy resources. You can always count on the Navy to come to the rescue.
