Get factories in the ball to start cranking out ventilators.

There was a whole todo about that a few days ago when the federal government announced it had made arrangements, but also advised the states to get them more directly if they can do that faster. At least some states took that to mean the federal government wasn’t going to provide them with any, instead of taking it as a statement that they weren’t going to get hung up on bureaucracy.

I still interpret that as states shouldn’t wait for the federal governments ventilators to arrive if they need them now but should source their own if they can get it until the fed supply chain is setup.
