They told them to inventory what they had in their states. They are supposed to use that first to meet the needs. The Federal gov is trying to boost production so the states can acquire more and are holding what they have on hand to try to help with any shortfalls.

I don't know why they had to make a big dramatic thing out of it. Is he taking the ventilators off of one set of patients to put them on another? I didn't read that. It is just common sense to use the things where they need them instead of letting them sit where they aren't used or needed. That is the whole idea of using the data to supply with is about.

He's manufacturing a crisis via artificial scarcity.

This. I said Trump needed to ask him for a state inventory before he delivered any new ventilators.

If Cuomo can't keep track of the existing ventilators in his bullshit state, why the fuck would you waste any more on him?

The state of New York is enormous, and most of it hasn't been touched by this virus yet.

You're telling me Cuomo can't rustle up ventilators in his state from hospitals with unused capacity? That's kind of his job as governor.
