e ordered. But they are going to need 30,000 more in the next 3 weeks. GM and Ford aren't going to be able to supply those. In three weeks they wil l still be in talks. Tesla seems to have delivered 1,000 in California, bu t I've heard no details.

Clearly efforts to flatten the curve in NY are not working.

re equipment but Trump is not doing a damn thing. He seems to be paralyzed . Well, not nothing. They are sending 400 ventilators from FEMA.

tors they need!

Blasio Mayor of NYC wanted to shut down non essential services but Cuomo said he could not do that , only Cuomo could do that. And so they did n ot do anything for about a week. And that is why NY has as many cases as the rest of the country.

They should take possession of Trump Tower and turn it into an emergency hospital. It's not like anyone else will be staying there for the foreseeable future.

And all his gold he paid a fortune for... they saw him coming. It is just microinch plated. At least one group got money out of the bastard.

They should take your house, as well.

The Tesla ones were imported by Elon Musk from China, believe it or not.

Yes, and they were new-in-box. China now has extra (used) ventilators, and furthermore, they have offered to help us, but Trump has spurned (reject with disdain or contempt) their offers, as he did before from the WHO.

It's actually 4000. Cuomo can't do math. While ranting he said, we need

30K, they are sending 400, who is going to tell the 26K they are going to d ie?

But you're right about using DPA. The feds need to determine the total sup ply, the run rate, take control of the supply, allocate it, figure out how to cl ose the gap. I knew Trump was a lying no good shyster from before he ran. But even I underestimated his stupidity with something like this. A ten year old could grasp it.

mo said he could not do that , only Cuomo could do that. And so they did not do anything for about a week. And that is why NY has as many cases a s the rest of the country.

Correct, de Blasio wanted to issue a shelter in place order for NYC and Cuome forced him to back off. Cuomo further lied and went on the air imply ing de Blasio wanted to quarantine NYC, when he had never used that term. Some time later, maybe 5 days or so, Cuomo finally had NYC shelter in place .

As to Cuomo, while he's running around trying to look like he's ahead of the curve, he is the moron that refused to quarantine Westchester when they had the hotspot there from the lawyer. Instead he allowed them to get on the 7:05 train to NYC and take it right on in to the city. Now we see the results. Had we quarantined Westchester and a small part of WA state, we could have greatly reduced the spread.

Now would be a good time for you to remind everyone that you claim to be a Republican. So, you're part of the problem, you're enabling him. If just ten percent of Republicans did what I did and left the party, the GOP would go into shock and have started dealing with the problem.

If I were in charge of another state with enough respirators for now, I would be very reluctant to send them to NYC, because De Blasio would be most unlikely to let go of them merely because my state needed them.

The NY Post reported that NYC didn't even get round to ordering supplies until two weeks ago. (Meanwhile DB tried to blame Trump, naturally.) I have several friends in NYC, and live in Westchester County, but I can hardly fault more prudent folks for refusing to trust DB with the health of their people.

Ah, that answers a lot of questions. I guess they don't need them anymore. I wonder if they are approved for use in this country? I guess Trump has relaxed the regulations... but for Chinese goods? I bet not.

No state is going to release anything they may need in a couple of weeks.

I will say I am slightly encouraged by some of the info I've been looking a t lately. Most of the country has very few infections. They seem to be co ncentrated in a few areas of high population density in the US. With the s ocial distancing being practiced we may do as well as China in most of the country.

NYC has been awfully irresponsible.

They had their Chinese Lunar New Year Parade on Feb. 9, 2020, capping fifteen days of festivities.

But, that was ten days after the administration stopped travel Jan. 31st, and thirteen days after the U.S. State Dept. issued travel warnings on Jan. 27th, so ... who knew?

A banner on one float read ?Support Wuhan! Let's fight the virus together!"

Oh dear...

The NYC Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot helpfully tweeted "I want to remind everyone to enjoy the parade and not change any plans due to misinformation spreading about #coronavirus."

NYC seems to be the center of the U.S. epidemic, and the source of spread. I blame the president.

Similarly, no country is going to..., no county is going to..., no hospital is going to... and no doctor is going to...

Hoarding stockpiles is a potentially very damaging misallocation of resources, and the wartime powers exist to prevent over-stocking of closets where needed goods gather dust.

According to some news sources, doctors have been using preemptive ordering of chloroquine (?) which is a potential treatment; that's not gonna end well.

here they simple banned doctors from prescribing it
