Letter to the editor: Schools as coronavirus hospitals

Tribune-Review
| Monday, April 6, 2020 9:00 a.m.

Hospitals in other parts of the country are setting up medical tents if there is an overflow of sick people from covid-19. All of our schools are closed down. Why couldn’t hospitals here use school gymnasiums, cafeteria areas and large classrooms? They have power, lighting, restrooms and refrigeration needed for temporary medical areas. Tents are more vulnerable to weather. The schools will all be thoroughly cleaned before students return.
