Why not? It’s not like it demands any specific skills, and there are a lot of people out of work who would jump on the chance to not go back to their old jobs right now.

It demands somewhat general but far from universal skills. Look at for example the CDC's suggested training (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/downloads/php/cont...) - this isn't something the average person will be able to pick up quickly and easily.
