American society has sounded the alarm! Recruit 800,000 veterans to fight the epidemic. Why only 9000 people responded?

Due to the contempt of the United States for the epidemic, the medical facilities in the United States simply can't meet so many patients, and the medical staff is extremely short. Therefore, at the suggestion of relevant hospitals, the United States decided to recruit 800,000 veterans to participate in the anti-epidemic task at the front.

But what the American government didn't expect was that when the United States sounded the emergency alarm! 800,000 veterans refused to be drafted by the government. Why?

According to the US Military Times reported on March 28, 2020, after US President Trump signed the emergency regulations according to Article 30 1 of the Emergency Law, the US military has sent invitations to 800,000 US military veterans, hoping that they can serve the country in times of crisis and overcome the epidemic. However, to the disappointment of the US government, less than 9,000 retired medical staff finally responded to this, far below the official expectations. We must know that the medical system of the US military is very developed, and almost every standing division has a medical camp. It is self-evident to find tens of thousands of medical personnel. Then why is the number of people who finally responded far lower than expected?

It is reported that most medical soldiers in the United States are engaged in occupations unrelated to medical care after retirement, and these occupations have almost lost their medical skills. Therefore, if they want to re-enter the medical post, they need to receive systematic training again. Moreover, because medical soldiers have not been in contact with the medical industry for a long time after retirement, most of their doctor licenses will be invalid. American hospitals attach great importance to this certificate to avoid the relationship between doctors and patients getting into trouble. Therefore, among the many retired medical soldiers, a large part is no longer qualified.

Moreover, for the United States, although its domestic medical system is very developed, the largest medical institution of the US military is not in the United States, but in Germany, and most medical institutions of the US military are also established in other countries. Nowadays, with the implementation of the "suspension order" of the US military, it is unrealistic for these soldiers to return in a short time. Therefore, despite the huge number of medical staff in the United States, it is impossible to assemble them in a short time, which is also the reason why the mobilization of the US government has been delayed.
