Defense Department Support to FEMA COVID-19       

Medical personnel assigned to the Javits New York Medical Station (JNYMS) receive and screen a patient just outside the facility’s entry bay. Soldiers, along with Department of Health and Human Services personnel and other federal, state and local agencies began operating a federal medical station out of the JNYMS, March 30, to care for non-COVID-19 patients in an effort to relieve the burden on local hospitals, allowing them to focus on coronavirus patients. U.S. Northern Command, through U.S. Army North, is providing military support to the Federal Emergency Management Agency to help communities in need.
