Hospital ship Mercy, with 1,000 beds, arrives in L.A. to ease healthcare strain amid crisis

[@freedomforever7252]

Guys I'm in Italy. Remember you are in America one of the most beautiful nations in the world. And more productive. As long as you remain united, the problems disappear. We must fight. America faced challenges. Infinitely more difficult. And it will be worse. The fault. from San Andreas. Huge earthquakes possible. America will face unprecedented catastrophes of scale. But we will. United !. America is not the pentagon or the heads of state. America is not moments or the flag. The most important thing is people. This makes America unique and wonderful. And my home america. because who are the people I love. More. It is difficult times that define who we are at times. And in a moment of need, people see themselves as they really are. As long as America is united, it will fight and win. But not because it has a large army. Or powerful weapons. But why. No joking with Americans. We are strong.! We are American. And perhaps it is true that one day too big a challenge will come for us too. And we will lose. But in case we will also do that together. America forever 🇺🇲👍🙂

Thank you 🙏 May God bless us all .

[@black98rt]

home. I cuccioli vincono! who3 I’m in the US and thankfully in one of the states with the least cases but I feel horrible for what’s going on in Italy, New York City, and I’m afraid most other cities around the world with high populations will be overwhelmed in the weeks and months ahead.

[@freedomforever7252]

@@black98rt Mortality. in Italy is 6 percent. It almost only kills older people with problems. But the virus could mutate. The situation. However, it is very serious because hospitals are too sharp. They weren't ready for so many patients. If it had been a virus like the Spanish flu it was a catacombs. But I'm sure this emergency will pass. Large cities with large numbers of people. They will be a big trouble maybe. But in my opinion. It'll be fine. But just think of the damage. Collateral viruses. Qa people in Italy. They no longer resist. What a coup. in the air someone says. If it gets worse. The government is really bad at handling. the emergency. And people have less and less money. less and less food. Over time it is more frightening than the virus. I myself have not left the house for 26 days. I miss the sun. And crazy. I'm exhausted. In fact I apologize for possible mistakes. I wanted to volunteer but. And suspended.

[@Bluemoonsigma]

God Bless you, we pray that all the good people of Italy survive this crisis. I pray that all of us in America live up to our best potential in these crazy times. I think the world can recover from this, and perhaps we'll all be kinder to each other afterwards. Bless you all.

Why didn't anybody listen... There's no shame in wearing masks and gloves when ever possible

[@dr.martinlroberts1908]

Because there is not enough, if people "listed" we would of run out sooner

Nobody was prepared for this, not even our own government. Now we're playing catch up.

[@Theonetruezelda]

Can't buy them anywhere, only hospitals have them and they are begging and pleading for more.😥 we would all use them if we had them!

[@cristopher8186]

I do this in California, people walk around stating at me as if I was the one that is sick.

[@flybeep1661]

@@cristopher8186 That's because a mask is only useful either when you're in very close proximity of potentially infected persons (like health care workers) or when you yourself are infected and want to protect others. For walking around on the street and respecting social distancing a mask is totally useless, it makes no difference. No wonder people would think you're infected, that's exactly what you're signalling to them. You'd be way better off to not be on the street at all (lockdown, that's what a freakin lockdown is) and washing your hands very regularly. Btw, I'm in one of the European hotsspots, the way you Americans are dealing with this is too little too few. You'll have it worse then we and your president was stupid to ignore the warning signs and write it off as a democrat hoax. Your president is an idiot.

Umm time to make 100 of those

[@victoriousvictory8899]

Please rotate the patients every 2 hours to promote tissue profusion unless contraindicated, Italy! Also, remember there can be too much pressure on the chest walls if lying in a prone position for too long. Also in order to drain the patient's excessive secretions, the Trendelenburg position may work😇. Italy 🇮🇹 All over the World! Also, a great position for a patient to prevent aspirations while intubated fowlers or high fowlers if not contraindicated. Remember the time frame for ventilation. A patient may have to move to tracheostomy inline.

[@ugandahater]

That ship isn't for infected patients. It's for people who need treatment for other issues while hospitals are busy with the infected

[@fierroboy1]

Thanks for the advice friend.

[@arx754]

Geez, do you really think the health care workers on the ship need your advice? They are doctors and nurses; you think the fact that they're members of the US military means they don't know what they're doing? lol.

Should have been done weeks ago, but thank goodness it's there

[@qigong1001]

Wow, kudos for praising The president despite the differences! I’m neither Democrat nor Republican, but I’m impressed and it gives me confidence in this guy as a leader Who puts aside petty differences for the better of its citizens! You still need to halt property tax penalties and don’t ask us to prove hardship to avoid penalties, that’s just stupidity at this point.

[@secredeath]

Someone just tried to crash into the USS mercy. Says its a trap everybody RUN

[@maggymaie1699]

Same here in New York. I shot a small video, very simple but you are welcome to check it out. I work right in front of Pier 90, so it was possible to shoot from very close. English subtitles available

All my thanks are to Pres. Trump for making this happen. Love my Pres. Trump.

[@superd6199]

And Californians continues to bash President Trump for not helping fast enough. Sigh............

Awesome! Praying don't need to fully use the ship. Very scary what's happening in New York is going to happen to California. God help us all!

[@jamieshepherd3077]

It’s depressing that our Governor has to praise the President for doing his duty.

[@arx754]

Thing is that the overwhelming majority of us KNOW that the Governor , by praising Trump, is saving lives. We all know that sucking up to Trump is a small price to pay at a time like this. So, no shame in him doing it in order to save the people of his state. Takes a GROWN-UP to swallow his pride and do what he's doing.

Where is the Mercy & Comfort hospitals now?

[@pikasnipe1]

9 months later and now Zero capacity in the ICU, maybe the ship should head back.

[@barbarah9917]

God Bless u all n America. 💕

[@Hungry_Panda]

Should the ship be in SF port, the epicenter of the confirmed cases of corona virus in California?

[@bud_kleric2771]

The epicenter is New York

[@Hungry_Panda]

Bud_Kleric The United States Naval Ship Comfort is in NYC I’m talking about The United States Naval Ship Mercy. Watch the video before comment

[@constitutionalrepublic1966]

If every new infected ended up on that ship, will people ever be allowed to leave if they are no longer infected as long as there are other infected passengers on board with them? I saw the FEMA guys behind them. Will those 🏥 hospital ships become FEMA barges? They should send all the 🚨 trauma/heart attacks/strokes/broken bone emergencies to the hospitals. Send every infected to the 🛳 ship so the hospitals 🏥 can take all the non coved 19 emergencies they are used to treating.

[@DrAlex-ly3kz]

The opposite is taking place. The hospital ships (one in NYC, one in LA) are being used for non-COVID cases to free up space in the regular city hospitals for COVID patients.

[@ugandahater]

I've never heard a Democrat butter up Trump more

[@tsimoi273]

He doesn't want to be like New York, unless you kiss ass of the orange buffoon you don't get anything no matter what's happening to the citizens. What a time we're living in!

[@arx754]

He's doing it to save lives. Kissing Trump's ass publicly means he'll keep sending equipment, supplies, MONEY to help. To save lives, I'd swallow my pride and do it, too. Dealing with Trump is like dealing with someone holding people hostage. Playing to his ego rather than criticizing him can often make the difference between life and death for those held "hostage". In this case, people with the vrius.

It appears Gov. Newsom has realized that if he says nice things about Trump on TV, California may get assistance instead of mockery from the big buffoon.

Incredibly sad because you're 100% correct. Kiss the ring (aka Drumpf's arse) and you MIGHT get some aide during a pandemic. #FlattenTheCurve
