A military hospital ship arrived in New York on Monday as America's coronavirus epicenter prepares to fight the peak of the pandemic that has killed over 2,500 people across the US

The navy's 1,000-bed USNS Comfort entered a Manhattan pier around 10:45 am (1545 GMT)

It will treat non-virus-related patients, helping to ease the burden of hospitals overwhelmed by the crisis.
