They never DID need it....thank GOD!

How many patients used the Javitz Center?

But yet EMS staffers are told Do Not Resucitate heart-attack victims?

[yuleeyahoo]

So after Coumo and Deblasio infected the ship they have no further use for it?

Didn't need it in the first place any more than they needed 40,000 ventilators.

And now it seems, that perhaps the ventilators are why they're dying. Too extreme...using oxygen via nose buds might be the answer from what I read.

it looks like Cuomo’s frantic rants about needing 40,000 ventilators, the Comfort and field hospitals were a bit over the top. He knew that, but he, as a loyal dem, thought that he could hammer Trump about 40,000 ventilators to make Trump look bad. I doubt if it was out of real concern for the people of his state since he hadn’t lifted a finger to buy ventilators when he was offered a good deal on them a few years ago.

Why would he need a battleship during a meeting?

Cuomo also told the president during the White House visit that New York no longer needed the USNS Comfort to treat COVID-19 infected patients, offering to deploy it to another hard-hit state.

In the eastern part of King County Washington where we had the first deaths in the country we peaked before the governor's stay at home order was announced. The temporary hospital the military set up never received any patients. The quarantine center designed for 150 only received 3 people and not all at the same time, so it was shut down also. Overlake Hospital and its extension in Kirkland, the first hospitals to have coronavirus deaths started giving away the massive amount of supplies they received weeks ago.

If it were not for the extreme padding of the numbers we would not have half as many deaths attributed to this.

With Cuomo’s record, he’ll be calling for the return of the Comfort by next October, if not sooner.

[DownInFlames]

Send him the bill. What’s the hourly operations cost.

[silverleaf]

Maybe we can send it to south dakota :)

“offering to deploy it to another hard-hit state”

Only the Federal government can deploy the ship and decide where it goes.

If NYC no longer needs the ship it means they never needed it. Comrade de Blasio just wanted to make Trump look bad, but instead made him look good.

Meanwhile...

NY issues do-not-resuscitate guideline for cardiac patients amid coronavirus

[Titus-Maximus]

How is it that Cuomo no longer needs the comfort / how come he can give away ventilators now / how is it that hospitalizations and intubations are down/and how is all this being achieved without hydroxychloroquine working?

he doesn’t seem to be worried about the future or the rebound of this disease why is that?

Do they or don’t they have a treatment for this disease and why isn’t it public?
