EK372 24th September - no seats because of stretchers

Hi all,

I am due to fly the above flight in about 10 weeks time and always try and pick one of the three rows of two seats at the back in Y on the T7. However this time the seat map on MMB does not show these three rows.
My GF, who booked her seat back in February has 48A and this shows up unavailable (to me) as expected.
Finding this strange I called Emirates (the 0844 number in the UK) and was told that these seats are blanked out as they are allocated to stretchers! The woman reckoned that may become available on the day of travel so I might get one on OLCI but my question is how do Emirates know they will be carrying stretchers 10 weeks out?
