Its not a terrible idea.
The ready reserves are not active military. They arent even national guard. These are people that have been completely discharged from active or NG service but will now have the choice to go back in.
Many of the may be laid off of their regular jobs or otherwise unemployed due to the chinese virus.
Trump has just put them back on the payroll and without using any active forces.
I bet the democrats hate this idea...was it an executive order?

It was the same in Vietnam.
The communists were sly, and so they defeated the U.S. by defeating Congress and the American public, with biased information. With such sewage, they persuaded the public that “all” American soldiers were war criminals, and so many combat veterans were badly treated when they came back home.In July 1974 (Colonel Harry Summers, US Army) returned to Vietnam as chief of the Negotiations Division of the Four Party Joint Military Team (FPJMT). The main task of the U.S. delegation was to resolve the status of those Americans still listed as missing. During one of his liaison trips to Hanoi, Harry had his now-famous exchange with his North Vietnamese counterpart. When Harry told him, "You know, you never beat us on the battlefield," Colonel Tu responded, "That may be so, but it is also irrelevant.
(from the website clausewitz.com, search for the obituary for Colonel Summers)"
Fortunately, by the mid-to-late 80’s, attitudes had begun to change, as reflected in the below video clip from the TV series Tour of Duty (1987-1990).
Having said all these things, U.S. forces should not have gone to Vietnam, because there was no declaration of war by Congress, as required by the Constitution.
The video clip is the last part of an episode in which a female reporter accompanies the infantry company on a mission. During the mission the reporter is wounded, and the company commander is killed in the same firefight. His funeral extends from about 4:00 to the end.

Smart idea,
The troops will mostly consist of units and personnel with high demand medical capabilities whose call-up would not adversely affect their civilian communities, Hoffman said.
Before calling up National Guard Reserve Component units under this executive order, Esper and the Department of Health and Human Services will first consult with state officials.
