    200326-N-PH222-1497 PACIFIC OCEAN (March 26, 2020) Sailors aboard the hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) conduct deglycerolization training March 26. Deglycerolizing refers to thawed, previously frozen red blood cell products processed to remove glycerol prior to transfusion. Mercy deployed in support of the nation's COVID-19 response efforts, and will serve as a referral hospital for non-COVID-19 patients currently admitted to shore-based hospitals. This allows shore base hospitals to focus their efforts on COVID-19 cases. One of the Department of Defense's missions is Defense Support of Civil Authorities. DoD is supporting the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the lead federal agency, as well as state, local and public health authorities in helping protect the health and safety of the American people.
