And everyday people - that were actually paying attention - got masks and hand sanitizer in mid-January.

I understand most hospitals are bottom-line driven, and out-of-the-ordinary procurement and spending is a big no no (well, until an emergency is declared by the gov; then it’s tooooooo late in our online buying world).

...Because the federal government is responsible to run the city hospitals and stock their shelves. /s

Everybody knows it was the CDC. They don't call it the Coronavirus Distribution Center for nothing.

And there was plenty of time for the stores to be restocked and production to be increased, before the “panic of the unprepared” hit.

“...Because the federal government is responsible to run the city hospitals and stock their shelves.”

So, where’s the responsibility for a hospital’s leadership to see what many regular folk saw comping (and personally prepared for)? Why wasn’t it hospitals that bought up the stuff that’s now sold out?
