All day it’s TESTING TESTING TESTING

The only thing the feds might be in charge of is testing so they pick this one thing to complain about because what else they gonna complain about?

“We need hospital boats in the harbor!”
Nope

“We need face masks!”
Nope

“We need ventilators!”
Nope.

But the FDA is in charge of testing so they make like this is gonna cure everyone because they can blame Trump.

(hope this is serious enough)

Glad you brouth up ventilators,its a really huge topic since 80% of those in NYC that were put on ventilators died!!
there is a reason:
Here’s a post I made here yesterday:

Here’s the other problem with ventilators,they don’t work. Isstead they are killing patients,especially in NYC>

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-8201783/Some-doctors-moving-away-ventilators-virus-patients.html

At least 80 percent of coronavirus patients in New York City who have been put on a ventilator have died.

As health officials around the world push to get more ventilators to treat patients, some doctors are moving away from using the breathing machines when they can.

The reason: Some hospitals have reported unusually high death rates for coronavirus patients on ventilators, and some doctors worry that the machines could be harming certain patients.

Mechanical ventilators push oxygen into patients whose lungs are failing. Using the machines involves sedating a patient and sticking a tube into the throat.

Deaths in such sick patients are common, no matter the reason they need the breathing help.

Generally speaking, 40 percent to 50 percent of patients with severe respiratory distress die while on ventilators, experts say.

Higher-than-normal death rates - like those in New York City - also have been reported elsewhere in the US, said Dr Albert Rizzo, the American Lung Association’s chief medical officer.
