Yes
It's owned by DoD, not Army. Services all branches.

Owned by DOD, operated by the US Army, open to all the uniformed services.

The Armed Forces Recreation Centers (AFRC) Resorts serve members of the U.S. Armed Forces, their families, and other authorized users. The AFRCs are Category C Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) activities operated by the U.S. Army as executive agent for the Department of Defense (DOD). Army Installation Management Command (IMCOM) G9 directly manages the AFRCs to provide all uniformed services with high-quality, affordable resort-style facilities consistent with the Army's focus on readiness and quality of life for Service Members and their Families.

Yeah, Edelweis in Garmisch-Partenkirchen is on the books officially as an army installation, even though its open to and used by all services.

Yeah, DeSantis said they are clearing the hospitals there to be ready.
Are they cancelling elective surgeries again? In TX in some of the highest impacted counties they started to return to a ban on elective surgeries. It helps get over the hump, but we can’t go on forever like that.

I haven't seen a cancellation but if they can open the bed by accommodating the patient to another facility (nursing/discharge) they are doing it. Nothing new in the hospital community.

I don’t get the closing of beaches. Patrol them, enforce distancing but just asking for trouble when open again and EVERYONE flocks to get their vitamin D. Plus outside with breeze disperses any possible virus particles. Made as much sense as saying no boating with a motor on a huge lake but hey- small non motorized boats ok. Or roping off parks forcing people to stay in smaller crowded apartments instead of fresh open air (66% in NYC were self isolating and positive)
So now people who are sick to death of being isolated will just crowd to each other’s house in closer quarters. Makes sense :rolleyes:


also to put the situation in Houston/Harris county in perspective, from the current SETRAC hospital census

View attachment 479657
think I read they are trying to keep 15% of ICU for Covid patients, so probably why “sever threat” issued?
Would love to see the report on the thousands of young poeple that tested positive this week and show how many had no issues and have issues if they did recovered in 2-3 days, come on Orlando Sentinel get on it.
And if those people’s close contacts/families are positive or ever show symptoms. Would go alooonnnggg way to seeing just how many “asymptomatic” transmissions there are vs presymptomatic and how severe the case.

The answers on here for so many people are open things up and patrol them. I’ve heard it for bars.. beaches.. etc. We don’t have enough patrols in this country to make sure people are doing the right thing. It won’t work as you can see by the crowds and huge gatherings every week. Why don’t we as adults just do the right thing, then most places can reopen. We are not so things go downhill. Patrols and policing people to make sure they social distance and/ or wear masks where necessary isn’t working. Let’s try and be caring adults and do what’s right and hopefully this thread might be over because there’s nothing left to talk about.
