Bring in more sick Mexicans to these hospitals!

One would love to learn the numbers non-citizen patients and their relative proportion to United State Citizen patients.

If I were a betting person, I might wager something approaching 40 to 60 percent.

And, as an aside, how many of these patients are professional vagrants?

Only in California would the most abundant element on earth be in shortage.

Soros and Gates probably cornered the market on air and want to force the Ca. government to pay a premium for it .... Apple and Tesla considering a joint venture (with massive government subsidies) to import air from Mars.

Sounds familiar......

I believe this was caused at least in part by a fire in the manufacturing plant in Taiwan where a majority of the world’s supply is made. I don’t know if this is the right article, the headline looks related:

We never heard much about his tremendous efforts to get auto makers and other manufacturers to ramp up production of ventilator machines.

Maybe the President needs to exert his authority to get oxygen production ramped up as well.

Astonishing data in that dashboard.

The top 5 counties are all Southern California where there is a total of 12,945 patients out of 20,162 patients in all of CA. Those top 5 SoCal counties account for 64% of all California patients. All SoCal counties account for 61% of California’s population.

The Greater San Fran Bay Area has 2,300 patients, about 11% of all California patients. The nine counties in the Bay Area have 7.75 million people, 20% of California’s population.

What in the world is going on in SoCal?

Since the WuFlu stats are crap it’s hard to tell.

"There's plenty of it outside."

All you have to do is concentrate it and you can do that with a "medical oxygen concentrator." The medical supply companies don't seem to have banners saying "SOLD OUT!"

“Lazy on someones part.”

That really is true. After all the hubbub about lack of beds, lack of ventilators, etc, etc and then Trump ramping up ventilator production and getting the military hospital ships dispatched (but not used) and cities building emergency hospitals all over the country (most of which were not used) and converting the Jacob Javits Center in NYC to a hospital (again not used), you would think SOMEBODY would have asked: “What will we need if this gets bad again? What shortages might we experience? What do we need to stockpile? Where and how can we get supplies like Oxygen?”

The hospital execs HAD to have conducted war gaming exercises for such planning, right?

Wow, had not heard about that. Was this reported by any other more mainstream news agency?

Reuters is “mainstream”.

But the mainstream media, the American media, is not interested in something that happens half a world away, for a medication THEY have already decided cannot be used to treat the pandemic, because they are so much smarter than the doctors who think it should be used.

An interesting find.
I wonder if there are state regs that have forced this out of the state?

I hear you about that. But the sources for this HCQ factory explosion in Taiwan seem really sketchy.

Choose your poison — sketchy web sources or Reuters/AP. Sigh.
