to begin manufacturing ventilators — work that had already been underway, AP reported.
“The real challenge is not having a clear dashboard-like function that can help match demand and supply. Just infusing more cash doesn’t create that,” he said Friday. Soumi Saha, director of advocacy at Premier, which purchases equipment for roughly 4,000 hospitals, said 56% of hospitals didn’t receive their orders for N95 masks in February. She said traditional wholesale markets are depleted and hospitals are turning to the gray market, rife with scams and counterfeit products. In a 72-hour period last week, Premier fielded more than 130 requests from hospitals to evaluate unregulated suppliers, none of which were legitimate, Saha said.
The new nonprofit Project N95, launched by tech entrepreneurs, former government officials and supply chain experts, is one of many new impromptu clearinghouses for medical equipment trying to solve the crisis.
JulietLinderman mendozamartha Blame Six Sigma folks and just in time manufacturing. Their system is set up efficiency not panademics.
JulietLinderman mendozamartha Doctors in the US? It's the entire world. Europe, Canada... Even Asia is rationing. If you outsource manufacturing of everything to China, and China hoards all the supplies and lies to the world while it buys medical supplies in foreign countries as well... This is the result

MrJonCryer JulietLinderman mendozamartha So, maybe sending the entire 17 tons of supplies to China on Feb 7 we had in the stockpile was NOT a good idea ? ( source: Mike Pompeo tweet on that day )
JulietLinderman mendozamartha It doesn't need research to know this... Just plain observation and wisdom is enough....
