Is he accusing hospitals of flipping medical supplies for profit?

[quote]Trump noted suspiciously that hospitals are now asking for many more masks than they used to, before the coronavirus appeared. “How do you go from [10,000] to 20,000 masks [prior to the pandemic] — to 300,000…” he said, “Something’s going on. And you ought to look into it as reporters. Where are the masks going? Are they going out the back door?[/quote]

Perhaps it’s the same way you go from 15 cases to 150,000 in a few weeks. Does he not realize the longer he waits to do something, the bigger that [i]something[/i] will have to be?

More than just that. Masks are NOT supposed to be reused!!!

You take it off then you absolutely should get a new one.

I suppose he doesn't expect people to eat or drink anything all day! That's just a minimum of three a day and many of those working are on 10 to 12 hour shifts.

@DeWayfarer In Ohio someone has come uop with a method of rsanitizing used masks. They figure they can turn around nearly 200,00 masks daily. Between that and newly produced ones the governor hopes to resolve the shortage of masks - at least in Ohio.

I bet if it works out, the process will be shared so others can follow suit.

@Budwick perhaps. Yet more could be done if false accusations where not made all the time. 😔

@DeWayfarer Perhaps? I heard the governor talking about it today!
Not perhaps.

I don't appreciate false accusations either.
I don't know how they would affect things actually being done.
The people working on this are motivated by need, not by cheer-leading.

@Budwick every state has different standards. That is why I say perhaps. I believe Germany also came up with something. Yet again standards.
