When this thing is over, we are going to have a great surplus of ventilators, as well as toilet paper.

For all the belly-aching about ventilators from our nation's governors, has any state actually run out of them?

I would think that is doubtful since POTUS said yesterday they have so many they are now sending them to other countries.

Not only has no state run out of them, but as far as I can tell no US patient who has needed a ventilator has been denied one.

President Trump has done a masterful job of managing the national stockpile of all medical equipment while detractors continue to snipe at him.

As with most things about this situation, it is obvious unnecessary panic was caused. The article says CA is using 32% of its ventilators, here in PA the number is 28% in use, ONLY 12% FOR VIRUS CASES. Even NY apparently admits they have plenty.

Somehow we need to start getting real info, not wild projections from panic mongers.
