Democrats request morgue trucks. WTH? This is political theater. Nation wide deaths are down below 400 per day from a peak of over 2,000.... but Democrats keep trying...

Just exactly how long do they plan on keeping these said dead bodies in the morgue ? 
Usually when someone dies in the hospital, if there’s no postmortem, the funeral home pics them up the same day..

A relative of mine is an army doctor and is being deployed to Arizona as part of a team.

Weird. My sister is a nurse at USMD and JPS hostpitals in Arlington, TX and she said the ICUs are normal. They did reserve the whole 6th floor of USMD for covid patients, but nobody's dying of covid in the ICUs the way the media portrays it.

it is sad in some places in texas...:(
another update from close friend that is an er doc in texas...
they will hold the cases that do not look able to survive and keep them in the er for treatment...
they do this with hopes they improve but chances are slim and when in the er thry can have family close on the other side of glass wall... once in the icu or covid floor no visitors and if they die they die alone..
er doc worked 24 days two months ago and 26 last month..they usually do 13 days a month..(they do10hour shifts)...regardless of politics there is a lot of sadness going on...
stay safe......

I just talked to a buddy whose wife is a doctor. She said last week there were 3 patients at both Touro and Baptist hospitals..

Back in May Minnesota spent $5M+ to buy a refrigerated warehouse because of the impending doom. I'm assuming it is as empty as that medical ship that Trump sent to NYC

They were originally supposed to go to Houston but it was changed. I kind of got the idea that they were going to deploy them somewhere no matter what just for thw sake of deploying them but I may be wrong.

I’m so sorry they had to work 24 days in a month. That’s brutal.

I'm curious if they actually get used, or if this is just a stunt. Trump sent NY a ship to house the sick and was hardly used.

These trucks are preparation.

Doesn't matter if they aren't being used.

I’m sure it was burned down in first couple of days of June.

Dual purpose.
Reefer on = full of dead bodies.
Reefer off = regular trailers to store the 500,000 General Motors ventillators the taxpayers built that aren't being used.

worldometers logged 85 TOTAL covid related deaths in the entire US yesterday. This is political theater.

24 10h days is 240 hours. Four 40h weeks (full time) is 160 hours.
I’m actually surprised they only work 10 hour shifts, most are 12h in the ER.
