Signing the deal in a virtual ceremony were DOT Secretary Bernadette Romulo-Puyat, National Parks Development Committee (NPDC) Executive Director Cecille Lorenzana-Romero, and Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso.
According to Puyat, the Manila Mega Field Hospital will be constructed at the 16,327-square meter area of the Burnham Green located at the western section of Rizal Park.
The mobile field hospital will augment the bed capacity of hospitals for moderate and severe cases of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) with its default capacity of 336 beds, plus the “capacity to expand should the need arise.”
