Additional medical professionals are needed by hospitals across Missouri to help meet the challenges posed by COVID-19.
To supplement the state’s current health care workforce, the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency, and the Missouri Department of Economic Development’s Missouri One Start Division are teaming up to recruit medical professionals not currently part of the workforce to join a specialized state team that responds to critical health emergencies.
“Medical professionals and first responders across the state are working tirelessly to meet the rising needs and challenges posed by the COVID-19 crisis,” Governor Mike Parson said.

Selected medical professionals would become part of the Missouri Disaster Medical Assistance Team (MO DMAT-1). MO DMAT-1 operates throughout the state and deploys when necessary to provide patients with on-site medical care.

Well, I guess it is more serious than you and your cohorts thought, but then a person of lesser intellect could have told you that you were warned it was bad. Now with more infected you want to put medical personnel in more danger by calling back a cadre of experienced personnel that could be backup when the present cadre get too sick to help. Great planning, I assume you got this from the President and his genius son-in-law. Vote these clowns out next November unless they cancel a election and just spend another 4 years washing it fully down the drain.
