ExCel London offers good space for those need hospital beds and recovery facilities.

As London has highest number of infected cases and mortality it is essential to think in advance in regards to facilities needed and with minimum spending ExCel conference centre could change to a big hospital.
What Chinese did in days by building 1000 beds hospital we can do it in London too.
