Wisconsin’s temporary hospital at State Fair Park is sitting empty. N
one of the 600 beds that were added as an insurance policy against the coronavirus have been used and most of the people tapped to staff the hospital are sitting idle. Still, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett says there is no reason to close it down. The mayor says it’s better to have the empty hospital and not need it, than need it and not have it. FEMA paid 24-million-dollars to build the temporary facility.
