Oj,Oj,Oj vilken cirkus detta kommer att bli. På en månad har alltså Italien 7500 döda i coronaviruset.
Mycket tyder på att Usa är på väg att gå samma öde till mötes om inte t.om värre.
Det som sjukvården skriker efter när det gäller att vårda svårt sjuka patienter av denna virus är ventilatorer/respiratorer. I Usa finns idag 200.000 ventilatorer att tillgå. Trumpen skryter om att nu ska minsann ventilatorer byggas av General Motors Tesla osv. Nog för att bilindustrin har resurser och säkert kan ställa om snabbt men man blir beroende av tillgång till komponenter från underleverantörer och risken är att man kommer att köra fast där. Observera världen skriker efter ventilatorer så det är inte bara att knäppa i fingrarna. För att återkomma till Italiens döds siffra som skett på en månad hur troligt tror Ni det är att GM ska kunna vara en räddare i detta. Nej, det är försent. Corona är i rullning.
- As hospitals prepare for a flood of desperately ill patients unable to breathe on their own, public health experts are calling on the federal government to oversee the nation’s ventilator supply so hospitals overwhelmed by coronavirus patients are not forced to ration the lifesaving equipment.
Car companies and medical equipment manufacturers are rushing to figure out ways to produce more of them, but the additional ventilators will take months to produce — not soon enough for the thousands of people expected to need them in the coming weeks. Experts say Washington should also take the lead in procuring and building the basic breathing devices used by paramedics and the military.
There are fewer than 200,000 ventilators in United States, but nearly a million could be needed over the course of the pandemic.
President Trump has so far declined to use the Defense Production Act to get more ventilators to places like New York and Washington that need them right now.
Because peak coronavirus infections will hit cities and regions at different times in the coming months, experts are calling for a centralized federal effort to send machines to infection hot spots from cities and states that have yet to experience significant numbers of cases.
“This is a national crisis,” said Frank Kendall, who served as under secretary of defense for acquisition and logistics in the Obama administration. “In a time of scarcity, you can’t leave it up to companies and governors to manage it themselves.”
Mr. Kendall said that only the federal government had the authority to take over the allocation of ventilators, both from manufacturers who are in the business of selling devices to the highest bidder, and state leaders who are unlikely to voluntarily let go of machines they fear they might need in the future.
“As the states become more desperate, someone has to referee the situation,” he said. “The marketplace isn’t set up to do that.”
