Whilst the passengers might be staying at home for, Air Canada is making use of some of its Boeing 777-300ER fleet for cargo purposes.
But to make space on the main deck of the aircraft, the seating has been what Air Canada called “reconfigured”
I would call it removing the the seating from the main deck.

The first Boeing 777-300ER has already been reconfigured, with the second and third aircraft to completed shortly. The reconfigured aircraft can carry 89.63 tonnes, the equivalent of up to 9 million medical masks.
The three Boeing 777-300ER aircraft are being converted by Avianor, an aircraft maintenance and cabin integration specialist, at its Montreal-Mirabel facility.
Avianor developed a specific engineering solution to remove 422 passenger seats and designate cargo loading zones for light weight boxes containing medical equipment and restrained with cargo nets.

This modification has been developed, produced and implemented within six days.
Through its cargo division, Air Canada has been using mainline aircraft that would otherwise be parked to operate cargo-only flights. The aircraft on these flights carry no passengers but move in their baggage holds time-sensitive shipments, including urgent medical supplies, and goods to support the global economy.

“The rapid transformation of some of our aircraft to meet cargo demand reflects our ability to maximize our fleet assets quickly when these aircraft would otherwise be parked. Air Canada’s engineering team worked around the clock to oversee the conversion work, and with Transport Canada to ensure all work was certified as tasks were completed. The next two aircraft are on track to be completed and will be in operation within the coming days,”
