For the benefit of information and future  
planning..........................................
 
I am aware of ONE burn center having to close because of  saturation.     
Were there other burn center closures  between Mexico and Malibu?
 
I am not aware of any HOSPTAL closures, although there is a rumor that TWO  
hospitals had to be totally evacuated.    Does anyone know if  such hospital 
evacuations were required.    
 
Hospital evacuations are relatively rare, so lessons learned would be of  
importance to others on this list.
