[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The health care workers on the front lines of this are like the fire fighters rushing into the WTC on 9/11.  It’s unfathomable how our government is so ill prepared to equip them with what they need.  The slowness is inexcusable.  What they have gotten is largely the result of donations. [/quote]

Other than the VA hospitals does our government run hospitals in this country?  Is it not the responsibilities of the hospitals to have supplies for their workers?

We are in a global pandemic. This is a national security situation without any exaggeration. There should be federal and state stockpiles and protocols and these should have been activated months ago.

To the OP and health care workers: thank you for putting your lives on the line.[/quote]

So I get that the trump administration was downplaying this from the beginning- but were states and hospitals not paying attention at all to what was going on the last few months?  Cuomo talks a good talk now but why wasn’t he getting supplies for NY back in January?  Lots of blame to go around.[/quote]

New York City is a heavy international travel city.  Agree that plenty of blame to go around.  I talked to a vendor in late January regarding a business trip in late February and he told me to avoid any NYC airports as
he thought there would be high risk of getting Coronavirus just by walking through a NYC airport.  Clearly Mayor and Governor dropped the ball given the known Asian and European travel through NYC on a daily basis.[/quote]
