A Canadian company is helping to limit the coronavirus pandemic’s strain on the healthcare system by turning old shipping containers into portable operating rooms and intensive care units.

Hamilton, Ont.-based Fero International customizes these containers into a variety of uses, depending on what their client wants. But as COVID-19 cases surge, the company has been using their innovations to help with front-line needs.

While COVD-19 hospitalizations are down compared to the initial wave back in the spring, the fear remains that this second wave could still be just as deadly., there were 975 new cases of COVID-19 and 14 additional deaths on Monday, though several provinces did not report due to the Thanksgiving holiday.

“This allows us to respond very quickly to a mass casualty event or a natural disaster event,” said Dr. Laura Hawryluck, a critical care medicine professor at the UHN.

One building at a time. Smart move.

such a great idea!

When I suggested that someone build mobile field hospitals at the beginning of the Pandemic I really meant mobile. These aren't mobile if they slap them together. It's laudable what they are doing but it should be done with Gov backing and build with virus containment in mind.

Dumbest idea so far.

A Reminder: Hospitals Are Empty

Let’s do this for the homeless... easy way to give them starter homes...

DAE think 'Chinese black market organs?'
