As COVID-19 cases continue to surge throughout the United States, the Defense Department has sent in the Army Corps of Engineers to help cities and states increase their hospital bed capacity in anticipation of a time when medical centers are overwhelmed by critical patients.

For some places, that’ll be in the next several days to weeks, ACE chief Lt. Gen. Todd Semonite told reporters Friday, as his organization scrambles to find facilities and convert them into treatment centers.

“As I’ve been saying all week, there’s no way we can solve this with a complicated solution,” he said. “We need a very, very simplistic solution.”
