We did. The government deployed a floating hospital called the USNS Comfort to NYC to massively increase hospital capacity and... it basically just sat there unused for a month and then left after Governor Cuomo said it wasn't needed.

And then rather than celebrate Covid not being nearly as bad as forecast, these same governors doubled down and extended their stay at home orders.
