Dear Editor,
Today, on the front page of the Wall Street Journal: U.S Hospitals Face Major Challenges. Hospital beds are on the decline nationwide. As the virus spreads, executives are scrambling to secure beds and places to put patients.
This article is supported by other major media outlets. The current virus has exposed something that is a problem in our country. We are simply not prepared for major events.
Perhaps the state of Michigan can explain to our community why they are preventing a local hospital? Beaumont is willing and the community is welcoming. There is no logical reason for the state to block this project.

I agree, Oxford needs hospital services closer to home.
