  1. I never got my ppe, I have still not received any, so of course I bought it myself, overpriced *of course *
    Why i am lured to vote for someone that is not ready, wasn't ready and will not be able to get the job done , 3 years Trump and his administration and not doing enough, ppl dying at a rate of 700 – 1000 a day, and
    He says "we are okay "
    I bet he's been vaccinated , he thinks he's better than all of us
    No Donnie you ain't
    You will be punished for your lack of action, we need someone 💯 with the ppl not you playing Golf 👎

  2. Hopefully this pandamic will end…..we in Malaysia also face the same situation…luckily the problem of ppe is solved because we are not depended on imported ppe…our local fashion industry willingly to donate by raising funds from public, the group of students sew it, the prisoners sew it, the ordinary people also contributed in sewing ppe..even at the beginning the frontliners also see their own ppe…hope everything will back to normal let's pray for it..sorry for my bad english

  3. Im a nurse. History may frown upon some in the profession WASTING PPE on tik toks, and protest. When for the first time ever all visitors cant be in the hospitals, and we didnt allow families to see there loved one's die. ALL PPE is precious and i hate seeing N95s not being used for direct patient care during a pandemic

  9. And our "experts" and politicians say on tv all the time that masks will not protect us. Only because state don´t have them. A double lie. The same what WHO is saying. Yeah? Why are the doctors wearing them then? WHO is full of what russians call "darmojedi".

  11. The trump administration let the maintenance contract on stockpile respirators expire, and a lot of them went bad.

  15. Dr. Ellerin really hit the nail on the head with everything he said. If the U.S. didn't learn their lesson then, they will now…..

  16. Most masks only expire because the rubber straps age and might snap. Otherwise the mask itself is just as effective. If in an average year a hospital uses 1million masks and during this crisis they need 20million it isn’t practical to stockpile 20 million masks and throw away 19 million a year until the next pandemic.

  18. I'd like to know how many healthcare workers have been laid off. I have several people I have talked to who live in different areas of the u.s. and they all were laid off. Why during a time like this would they be letting healthcare workers go?

  22. Obama is still f…. America I thought I was the only one but no it's all of America. demonkkkrats wet dreams come true Americans suffering and dieing.

  31. Only the government has the power to dictate the supplies and the wholesale channels to prevent the massive shortages during pandemic disaster.

  32. You would think that after the 1918 influenza pandemic which nearly wiped out all of mankind, leaders , scientists and medical people you would have thought to make it a priority to be better prepared for another one.
    It is now 2020 where the world has advanced in many ways that this situation should have been much easier to handle! Why not?

    There is something seriously not right about this current pandemic. Things don’t add up – and, the real rulers aren’t that stupid. I feel we have an enemy that is not a virus but certain members of our race with an agenda to transform the world into something very unholy.

    They never found a vaccine for the pandemic flu of 2018 and it vanished when IT decided to. People thought it was the end of the world, Armageddon!

    There is plenty of footage of the 1918 influenza pandemic and I would suggest you look at it… it is like “they” have scrutinised it and what you see before us is a replica, only semi fake for their ulterior motive.

    I , although I am near to GOD, quite shocked at the conduct of the human species, especially those who HIDE behind a veneer of goodness, kindness, and care when their nature is the opposite.

    Bless all decent people in the world! 🌍
    Remember too, we have power!! We are not powerless!

  33. the U.S. economy was already heading for a recession and that the coronavirus pandemic has acted like a “pin” that burst nearly all of the bubbles that I was warning about.

  34. We've been buying all the stuff for my wife this is bulshit that part is a lot of this materials out there but we the people are having to buy our wives and husbands this stuff so much for our government f**** ass over again I love my wife

  35. I don't know how practical it is to manufacture the PPE domestically when the prices are way higher than other countries that would bring up the hospital expenses and eventually bring up patients medical bills.

    The better way is to stock up the PPE for a year's or even two year's uses.

  44. Spending nearly 2 month golfing instead of preparing for it. Since orange man doesnt want to make the call that might hurt his poll numbers.

  46. Ques: Corona Virus Vs Flu

    The new corona virus causing COVID 19 has led to more than 454,000 ilnesses and more than

    20550 deaths worldwide. For comparison in the US alone the Flu (also called influenza) has

    caused an estimated 38 million illnesses, 390,000 hospitalizations and more than 23,000 deaths

    this season according to CDC24 (as of 25th march 2020)

    The death rate of COVID-19 and Flu is 0.1%21

    . The Ro of corona virus is 2.221 whereas Ro of Flu

    Virus is 1.325

    .

    Here we must remember the Ro is not an intrinsic feature of the virus. It can be lowered

    through containment, mitigation and ultimately “herd immunity”, as the people who have

    recovered become less susceptible to infections or serious illnesses. For the epidemic to begin

    to end the reproduction rate has to drop below 126

  47. Similarly, when a

    rtPCR kit is bought, a manufacturer’s manual will be provided. If you look at the manual it clearly says

    under Regulatory Status – ‘For Research Use Only, Not For Use In Diagnostic Purpose.

    5

    It is very clearly mentioned that it is only for research and not to be used for diagnostic purpose. This is

    the manufacturer’s mandate. Not only the manufacturer’s mandate, it has also been said by the

    inventor of this kit, Kary Mullis, who is a Noble Prize winner

  48. Ques- Now the question arises how do we get to know whether a person is a patient of

    corona virus or covid?

    There is only one way-rtPCR Test-Reverse transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction Test- a test kit by

    which you can diagnose whether a patient has contracted coronavirus or not. Whenever a machine or

    gadget is bought, whether car, camera or laptop, a manufacture’s manual is provided. Similarly, when a

    rtPCR kit is bought, a manufacturer’s manual will be provided. If you look at the manual it clearly says

    under Regulatory Status – ‘For Research Use Only, Not For Use In Diagnostic Purpose.

    5

    It is very clearly mentioned that it is only for research and not to be used for diagnostic purpose. This is

    the manufacturer’s mandate. Not only the manufacturer’s mandate, it has also been said by the

    inventor of this kit, Kary Mullis, who is a Noble Prize winner

    6

    Why this is not for diagnostic purpose ? The answer to this question is that- specificity of this test kit is

    at the most 99%. Specificity means that you can subject any random 100 healthy persons to undertake

    this test, and then it will declare any one person as false-positive. This was proved on 18th March 2020

    in Iceland. On the 18th this test

    7

    was carried out on 1800 healthy people and 19 people were identified

    as coronavirus patients. This is when the test kit was functional with full efficiency. If we listen to the

    advice of White House then the coordinator of corona virus in the White House, Dr. Birx, is of the

    opinion that the kit has 50% chance of proving false8.

    That means every second test could be proved

    wrong. For this very reason in Finland on 20th March, the health ministry in Finland, rejected this test

    kit
