mtls2005 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I know a few people still waiting (more than one week) at home for a field hospital bed and transport. These are mild cases, and unclear if they still have to stay in a field hospital for 14 days, or if they get time off for good behavior at home post-positive test.
