LOS ANGELES — The U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force are deploying 150 medical personnel to four Southern California hospitals to help overburdened staff address the Covid-19 surge, which has infected more than 825,000 people in Los Angeles County alone. 
Another 40 U.S. Army Reserve medical personnel will be deployed to Arizona, and about 25 health care professionals will aid Navajo Nation relief efforts in New Mexico and Arizona.
The added support comes as public health officials across the country warn that the United States has not seen the full effects of holiday gatherings.
Pray, I hope these 150 professionals can alleviate the plight of Los Angeles County. The more than 800,000 infections are a disaster. Do American politicians only pay attention to the presidential election?
