Car Hits COVID-19 Tent at Salinas Valley Mem Hosp 12-16-20 00:46 DC
A car, apparently driven by an elderly driver, Tuesday night crashed into a COVID-19 triage tent outside Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital. Spokeswoman Karina Rusk said two employees were involved, but there were no major injuries.
Rusk added that the crash created no immediate threat of COVID-19 exposure.
Police say the 75-year old's driver’s license was taken.
The tent is next to the Emergency Room entrance.
Rusk says the hospital is also suspending their drive-thru COVID-19 testing, due to the crash.
