SoCal Deek Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 What exactly are the preparations that everyone is claiming we should have had in place? I have a smoke detector in my house. Should everyone also have a family sized ventilator and a box of cheap masks? Maybe from now on we should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTA: Also notice this detail from a March 22 announcement from Food and Drug Administration, which suggests that one possible solution is on the bedside tables of millions of Americans. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), auto-CPAP, and bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP or BPAP) machines typically used for treatment of sleep apnea (either in the home or facility setting) may be used to support patients with respiratory insufficiency provided appropriate monitoring (as available) and patient condition. It’s hard to get a sense of how many CPAP machines are out there, but one manufacturer, ResMed, said in 2018 it had millions of patients. One company estimates 5 million Americans use CPAP machines. I know we have one. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well like countries that have slowed the infection rate they should have started making test kits ready since day one. We wouldn't have had to wait as long and still are short on testing. The countries that are still going about in the street started with full support of test kits. Edited March 25, 2020 by Hardhatharry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop blaming everyone else while claiming to be THE expert for starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Gal Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 What the... National Cathedral to donate 5,000 respirator masks <snip> Washington National Cathedral said one of its stonemasons recently discovered boxes containing more than 5,000 respirator masks in storage on the cathedral’s crypt level. Almost all of the masks, which had been purchased about 10 years ago during a previous health scare, will be donated to two local hospitals. </snip> 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what countries are those, exactly? China, who can never tell the truth about anything? South Korea? I don't really see many countries out there, with any real numbers of infected, slowing down the spread. Italy? Spain? France? Germany? UK? We have a similar or lower infection rate when compared to any of them, and a lower death rate (based on confirmed cases) than all of them, except South Korea. That can all change. However, if you are going to criticize this administration, then, to be intellectually honest, you need to criticize every government of every country out there (outside of South Korea) that is experiencing any substantial number of infections.

Yep... bizarro world is evidently alive and well over here. Now this moron wants everyone in Church by Easter??? What a jackass... What distance will you guys go to defend this idiot? I hope it's more than 6 feet Even though most of you won't likely admit it, at least you're mostly starting to understand that this guy won't be reelected and you're about to see @Deranged Rhino with a new avatar... though I really don't know if he's going to care since he appears to be a Russian bot as he posts a whole lotta propaganda What's doubly hilarious about this tone deaf post: @transplantbillsfan made it the day 45 reaches his highest approval rate ever, and over 60% of the public agrees with how he handled the crisis. Secondly, he's still pushing "everyone who disagrees with me is a Russian bot" three years after its peak stupidity. You can't get more tone deaf than that combo. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
