hmm...that raises in an interesting point. I don't think it would be possible to have "hospital plane" like the U.S. Hospital Ships. I mean, how many trauma centers do you think could fit inside a cargo plaine. Instead, I think it would be better if these "hospital planes" were more like dedicated planes that transported medical supplies and field hospital equipment. Basically you would have two planes. One is carrying all the medical supplies, the next is carrying all the materials to build the field hospital. These include prebuilt walls, tents, beds, etc. They both land in and area they both get setup.

I don't actually understand this problem There is a hospital in the UK which is very tall, and modern, but has many many elevators. Several for patients, several for staff, several for cleaning staff. But there is also a dedicated elevator taking patients from the roof (helipad) straight to the ground floor (ER), at a priority. So any patients with a priority will get served first, and it's actually much faster to go up a few floors and across than it is to traverse a large wide hospital.

Travis Atwood That was a really bad pun. Be prepared for your pun-ishment.

You likely didn't know this because you focus on trains and planes, but those bulkheads were left in place for something a bit more practical than laziness: If the ship floods, you kind of need those bulkheads in place, and cutting hospital-grade openings in them is not exactly wise, even if you were to put in emergency doors. While a hospital ship *does* need to perform as a hospital, making structural accommodations in the name of that goal has historically proven to be a terrible idea. Don't believe me? Look up the HMHS Britannic: An incomplete ocean liner, she was requisitioned as a Hospital Ship for the Gallipoli Campaign in 1915 during WWI. In November, 1916, she struck a mine in the Agean Sea during a shift change. Now, her internal bulkhead layout meant that, even with the forward compartments flooding due to the explosion jamming the forward watertight doors in place, she *could* have limped to shore, beached herself, and been salvaged by the Royal Navy... Except the doctors had all of the portholes opened in order to freshen up the air. They opened up. *ALL* of the windows. On a *ship*. *In a warzone.* Meaning that, instead of surviving, Britannic sank in 55 minutes. Fortunately, she was going TO the war zone, and not FROM the war zone, and thus had no patients on board. That meant the only people who died were the 30+ idiots that left without orders, and were chopped up by the propellers. TL;DR - Any kind of ship needs to be able to carry out its purpose as a SHIP before it can do anything else. While a land-based hospital can get away with having as little need for elevators as possible, the needs for the safety of ships at sea come first.

Sometime June 2006, the USNS Mercy was deployed to the Southern Philippines in Pacific Partnership. My ship the USS Momsen DDG-92 was operating in the same area when we received a message from CTF70 about 0200 saying they had intel that Muslim insurgents were going to sail a small boat along side the anchored Mercy and detonate the explosives it was carrying. We went to General Quarters, fired up all 4 main engines and headed toward the Mercy at our flank speed. (Well in excess of 30 knots!) The only way we could have gone faster was to enable battle override and run the engines till they self destructed! Luckily, nothing happened to the Mercy and she continued to provide medical support to the local people in desperate need of it.

Actually those “movement issues” facing the mercy and comfort are issues in land hospitals as well, even ones that are very wide. The truth is there are fairly predictable traffic patterns in hospital and there really is limited need to be able to move a patient from one area of the hospital to every other area of the hospital as long as the high traffic areas are accessible. For example, most large hospitals have multiple radiology departments that each serve a specific area of the hospital and fulfill different needs. And in highly densely populated areas, there are actually a lot of hospitals that have high rise towers for patient rooms. Sometimes it’s easier to move a patient on an elevator ride between two places near the elevator than push a very heavy bed with many attached monitors the length of several city blocks in a big city hospital.

SC Prepper Wow, guy sounds a bit crazy. Glad he did not succeed. At a time of a global pandemic, having two tanker hospital ships, with a states worth of medical capacity, is a great asset to the U.S.A. For its own use or for building international good will. People never forget those who saved them.

When I was flying into San Diego, I had the privilege to look out my window upon landing to see 1 of the 2 hospital ships in port. 🙌🏻👏🏻 I Googled it and I found out it was the U.S.N. Mercy. We need 3 more hospital ships: the U.S.N. Healing and the U. S. N. Succor, or the U.S.N. Hope.

soniyu ziuy Uhhhh, what???

I love you channel, I learn something new every time. Thanks you.

Seeing ships speed in mph or km/h instead of knots is so weird

Wendover Productions:. Lets start KZread channel containing all information about aviation as this industry is very progressive... Coronavirus: Hold my breath.... WP: Lets talk about US Hospitals...

Very interesting and worthwhile video.

You can't imagine how great these mini documentaries are for me. Waaay better that TV shit. Great job man! Keep it up!

To all the people that say that he didn't make a plane video, his mention the aircraft carrier in the beginning

"Tough times", I'm glad they are in service now..

Thanks for what you do. I really enjoy the videos you make and they are always interesting

Fascinating video. I worked on the UK hospital ship breifly in early 2015 during the Ebola outbreak whilst it was at anchor off the coast of Freetown, Sierra Leone.

Thank you for such an interesting article. I imagine Mercy and Comfort are vital in dealing with this epidemic. Godspeed.

Very informative. Thank you. I love the hospital ships. Glad to know we're using them.

Same . I didn't even know the US still had them . I learned something too .

1:20 Hospital-ships, things that saves human lives are on the page 42, a number that is definition of life. I like that coincidence very much.

@9:24 "...but when given the choice between a new Destroyer or a new Hospital ship, the Navy's going to pick ... the Destroyer" This sums up our Culture in general.

Wow Sam thanks so much for filling me with knowledge. I love this channel. I love this channel thanks agian
