Because of the trivialization of the epidemic in the United States, the medical facilities in the United States are simply unable to cope with such a large number of patients, and the medical personnel are also in extreme shortage. So at the suggestion of the hospitals involved, the U.S. decided to enlist 800,000 veterans to go to the front lines and participate in anti-epidemic missions.
But what the U.S. government didn't expect was that after the U.S. sounded the emergency alert! 800,000 veterans refused the government's call-up, why is this?
According to the U.S. Military Times reported on March 28, 2020, U.S. President Donald Trump in accordance with the Emergency Act, Article 301 decree signed emergency orders, the U.S. military has been 800,000 U.S. military veterans of the compulsory military issued invitations, hoping that they can be in the time of crisis for the country to serve, **** the degree of the epidemic difficulties. However, to the disappointment of the U.S. government, ultimately less than 9,000 veteran medical personnel responded to this, this number is far below the official expectations. It is important to realize that the U.S. military's medical system is very developed, almost every standing division has a medical battalion, so to find tens of thousands of medical personnel is completely out of the question. So why did the number of people who ended up responding fall far short of expectations?
It is reported that in the United States after the medical soldiers in the retirement, most of the occupations are engaged in are not related to health care, and these occupations also make their medical skills are almost lost, so that want to re-enter the medical position, but also need to be re-trained systematically. And medical soldiers in the long time after retirement due to no contact with the medical profession, most of their physician's license will be invalid, and the U.S. hospitals are very important to this certificate, in order to avoid the doctor-patient relationship and get into trouble. That's why a large percentage of the many retired medics no longer meet the requirements.
And for the U.S., although its domestic health care system is very developed, the U.S. military's largest medical institutions are not in the U.S., but rather in Germany, and most of the U.S. military's medical institutions are also set up in other countries. Now with the implementation of the U.S. Army's "shutdown order", these soldiers want to return in a short period of time is not very realistic. Therefore, despite the large number of U.S. medical personnel, but can not be assembled in a short period of time, which is the U.S. government's mobilization of the reason for the delay in response.
