Soldiers and engineers have been busy inside the TCF Center in downtown Detroit so it can accommodate hundreds of COVID-19 patients and healthcare workers, according to an article on the MLive website.
The 1,000-bed field hospital will be separated into an upper floor with 600 beds for seriously ill patients and a lower floor with 400 beds for patients who are recovering from COVID-19.
The upper floor will accommodate patients who require oxygen, but not a ventilator.
Detroit has been a hot spot for COVID-19 cases, with 3,958 reported cases and 131 deaths as of April 4.
