Seattle, Santa Clara County, NOLA, etc. want their shares of the ventilators sent to NY's stockpile. Had Cuomo bought the ventilators NY's 2015 task force said were necessary, NY might be donating some to other states.
Then again, had Jerry Brown not sold off the medical supplies and mobile hospitals bought by Arnold, CA might be, too. I saw a comment that basically Trump is having to make up, in a few weeks, for 1 or 2 decades of neglect by state governments and the Federal government, and navigate decades of bureaucratic red tape in the process.
Anybody want to talk about Certificate of Need laws,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_of_need ? Maybe the first jurisdiction to pass such a law?
