Or maybe not quite as bad, at least: https://khn.org/news/as-coronavirus-..._hsmi=85056102 "The United States has about three times as many ICU beds per capita as Italy and 10 times as many as China, two countries ravaged by COVID-19, according to a new report from the Society of Critical Care Medicine. The supply of ventilators also exceeds other developed countries, another study found. But as with ICU beds, “there is wide variation [in ventilators available] across states,” the study found."
I did not read the link, but does it include the number that are available and not in use by non-virus patients?

That's the thing..you may have 50 ventilators in North Dakota has like one case. they aren't going to ship those to New York...because god forbid it explodes there and they don't have what they need.
It would be very odd for ND to have that many excess ventilators. The population of North Dakota is about 761,000. Poor example.
The wonders of socialist medicine. Liberals will probably also support affirmative action in how respirators are distributed, they would give one to an illegal immigrant, or a black gangbanger shot in a drive-by, first.
Fake news. It's all just a hoax to make Trump look like the idiot that he is. Get on your Easter Shopping clothes and get ready for some good old fashioned American fun! Your first $1200 is on Uncle Sam this year!
No credit? No problem. Trump and Mnuchin are issuing very low interest credit cards with up to $10,000 spending limit for qualified applicants.

I was talking about Italy - not the U.S.
