NYC had a ventilator stockpile, but sold them off at auction.

May be time to tell NY to go fuck themselves. Too much incompetence and corruption.


"Those ventilators were then auctioned off some time before 2016 because the city could not afford to maintain them in working order, partially because the model of ventilator the city had purchased was no longer in production after 2009, the report said. "

Too much BS politics in this thread.

So what the article says is that in 2006 the City of New York bought ventilators and that by 2016, they were old, broken down, and didn't work any more. The model was no longer made and parts were no longer available so the City of New York sold them at auction, and didn't replace them. And we're talking 500 ventilators, not 10's of thousands of ventilators.

I don't see what's outrageous here.

Maybe it's time to tell 1000 post a month posters who are trying to gin up outrage and pit Americans against one another to go fuck themselves.
 
In 2015 the CDC told Cuomo he needed to purchase approx. 2,000 ventilator beds to prepare for a pandemic - he refused and blew millions on other projects...

Auctioning off the beds and using he money to buy new beds, if they were outdated and too expensive to continue to keep / run, would have been the smart thing to do. Following the CDC's advice in 2016 would have been the smart thing to do. Instead, Cuomo rolled the dice and bet on there not being a need for the beds.

Luckily the numbers are being downgraded, and it looks like NY may not need as many as projected. Americans getting healthier, npot getting sick, neating this virus - that's what's important.

Ventilators in storage not being used don't just breakdown. It's already been stated that venilators have a long shelf life and if one is broke it would be much easier to fix then to make a new one during a global shortage. As for expired masks they too have been approved for use in time of shortage.
 
Cuomo has messed that state up and that Deblasio idiot has undone all of the good in NYC....its a shit hole now....

Which doesn't answer the question of why they left their stockpile depleted, instead of replacing them with models which could be repaired and maintained.

What's outrageous here is that phrase "and didn't replace them".

It's long past time to tell Canadians confidently posting about how other countries should live and run things to go fuck themselves . . . again.
 
New York has no local or state governance. The President is responsible for New York according to the media. Why they have a governor and legislature and why New York City has a mayor is the mystery of the year.
Democrats are never responsible for anything.
