[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even if he miscalculated, I believe he's acting in good faith and performing admirably in the face of a total vacuum in federal leadership. [/quote] Agreed. And since there were stories that the tests are being hoarded by the feds, states were having to bid against each other for supplies, and no real urgency to get testing kits manufactured (such as the order to keep meat plants open), Hogan took decisive action. I’m happy there are that many tests available for Marylanders. [/quote] This. I completely understand why a state would do this, with so much uncertainty and the knowledge that the feds aren't helping (and, in some cases, were seizing PPE purchased by the states). I bet a bunch of deals fell through, too, so you'd have several irons in the fire and hope that some of them panned out. Competent, organized federal coordination would have been enormously helpful, but we didn't get that. [/quote]
