The George H.W. Bush Foundation Helped Donate Two Million Masks To China Despite American Healthcare Workers Dire Shortages

The George H.W. Bush Foundation has helped donate two million masks to China despite American healthcare workers approaching dire shortages of the vital equipment, and the American public now being advised to wear masks.

In partnership with the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations, and the U.S.-China Business Council, the foundation “sourced” the sizable donation. American companies Chubb and Walmart also contributed, and FedEx comped shipping fees.

A LinkedIn post described the eve

Meanwhile, China’s reaction to the onset of the pandemic was to poach vast quantities of medical supplies from other countries.

A company insider at the Chinese Communist Party affiliated developer Greenland Group exposed the operation: “Basically all employees, the majority of whom are Chinese, were asked to source whatever medical supplies they could” including “bulk supplies of surgical masks, thermometers, antibacterial wipes, hand sanitizers, gloves and Panadol.”

And that’s coming from the same regime that insists on“global cooperation” to combat the pandemic it caused.

American hospitals are already experiencing considerable scarcities of masks and other equipment, expected to grow in the coming weeks.

According to even the Washington Post: “Nearly 90 percent of U.S. mayors who responded to a national survey on coronavirus preparedness said they lack sufficient tests kits, face masks and other protective equipment for their emergency responders and medical workers, while 85 percent said they do not have enough ventilators for their hospitals — critical shortages that could lead cities and towns to be quickly overwhelmed should the virus spread through their communities.”

To put the number in context, Washington, D.C.’s burn rate of masks is 1,486,656 per month.

Thanks, free traitors. I hope that $.10 you saved on those Chinese made paintbrushes was worth what you've put the country through.

The Bush and Clintoon families have been sock puppets of the Chicoms for decades.

Maybe the Clinton foundation can donate a server to track supplies.

I have no issue with this if it was last year. We all wanted China to contain itself.

The lack of contextual dates make this report highly suspect.

And on March 5th who was foreseeing the approaching dire shortage of equipment for American healthcare workers? At the time Trump himself was calling the risk to average Americans to be low and accusing the media of over-hyping the situation.

George H.W. Bush is the one responsible for putting us in the position of being dependent on a communist regime.

If he had cut them off from trade with the civilized countries after Tiananmen as he should have, we would not be in this position.

It looks like it was 2 months ago, but I don’t see a date

Would one expect something different from the Bush globalist foundation?

I ran across the above DYNASTY clip on YouTube (shoulder pad warning) and it rang true as to all the wolves in sheep’s clothing we encounter in life, “radiating this glow of passive acceptance” while they allow treachery..

Poor Claudia was bonkers but here she was utterly sane.

I believe this happened in early Feb. NOTE: These were donations. Humanitarian aid right when it started here.

This mask thing is starting to look like a NYC shell game! We buy the masks from China, but ship masks to them to alleviate their shortage? I wish we could put some kind of politics filter in every damned news article. I wonder what would get through it these days?
