Why haven't they? There's a worldwide shortage of ventilators and prices are through the roof.
- pkaye 7y ago> The German government just placed an order for 10,000 mechanical ventilators. What’s the U.S. government doing about a potential shortage here? Not much, it seems. President Trump alluded to the matter in a press conference but did not spell out any plans. I guess there is not action at the top level. This is a national emergency and they should be cranking them out like tanks during a war and distribute to where its most needed.
- hanniabu 7y ago> They just need the orders.
- olalonde 7y ago> Why haven't they [gotten orders]? Seems hard to believe... Ventilator factories worldwide are operating at full capacity, turning down orders or raising prices, but meanwhile US ventilator companies aren't getting orders?
