I saw that coming when the panic cry for ventilators came out over a year ago.

Some real investigative reporting? Must have been a fluke. I’m sure that their media overlords will put an end to this.

Chinese junk - originally listed at $16,000each. Never cleared by the FDA for distribution.

Yep… ChiCom junk that likely was medically insufficient. Pity the poor importer who got burned on this trash. On second thought, maybe they simply got their just deserts.

That mountain of garbage is one of my indelible memories of Florida. Unbelievable.

“Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of medical equipment was apparently just thrown away.”


I confess my ignorance. Do ventilators have a ‘best if used by date’? Of course Orange Man Bad was behind a rush to build ventilators—so maybe that’s why they have to be gotten rid of. Far better to dump them in a landfill than send them to Brazil. And of course we’ll never face another medical crisis from China again.

Kinda...they use valves and sensors that are meant to be last a long time but...use it or lose it. They need to be stored in cool dry environment for long-term storage. After prolonged storage they require testing before they can be qualified for patient use.

They’ll blame it on DeSantis.

I get that they couldn’t sell then as ventilators, but I’m surprised that a salvage company wasn’t willing to take them off their hands for parts, or motors or something.

They couldn't even get an EUA, meaning there was something that made them unsuitable or dangerous, even in emergency. The trash heap is pretty much where they belong. Whoever imported them got ripped off.

Can we be certain that they were of Chinese origin? Seems like a terrible waste.

Who ordered the dump at the land fill?
