Two Department of Veteran Affairs hospitals in Manhattan and Brooklyn began freeing up beds Sunday to help New York City hospitals deal with an overwhelming surge in coronavirus patients.
The VA announced on Sunday that it would make available 50 beds to non-veteran, non-COVID-19 patients to help assist New York City in its coronavirus response efforts.
