Here's what doesnt sit with me.
New York NEEDS ventilators. They get 4000 when they need 30,000? Why?
Yes, Cuomo shit the bed on that one, but you know that, right?
NY Gov. Cuomo Rejected Buying Recommended 16,000 Ventilators in 2015 for Pandemic, Established Death Panels and Lottery Instead

Life comes at you fast, as the saying goes, or as the case may be in this era of a viral pandemic, death comes at you fast. Sadly it is the latter for the citizens of New York who will pay the price for Gov. Andrew Cuomo?s (D) 2015 decision to not fix a shortfall and buy the recommended 16,000 ventilators to shore up the state?s stockpile in case of a pandemic. Cuomo spent more money than the cost of the ventilators on a solar panel boondoggle, reports former New York Lieutenant Governor Betsy McCaughey (R) in a syndicated column published this past week. McCaughey reports the Cuomo administration decided instead to establish ?triage officers? to decide in a crisis who would get a ventilator and who would be left to die.
It has also been reported a ventilator lottery would be an option in a pandemic crisis. Now with the COVID-19 Chinese coronavirus overwhelming New York hospitals, Cuomo is begging for ventilators.
