expanding ventilator capacity and ICU capacity is extremely NOT cost effective and not practical.....it will cost YOU and ME mega dollars to have such equipment and the needed personal on standby....
It is what will save lives in another5 or 6 weeks, most likely.
It’s where the rubber meets the road and where we should have been investing for the last 2+ months.
And personnel don’t have to be on standby, just trained up so they can operate there, rather than more general environments, as needed.
