Trump says he's sending ventilators directly to hospitals

President Trump said on Monday that he ordered federal officials to send ventilators directly to hospitals — after he blasted New York for leaving equipment untouched at a New Jersey warehouse......Cuomo on Tuesday slammed the federal government for sending just 400 ventilators through the Federal Emergency Management Agency. “You want a pat on the back for sending 400 ventilators? You’re missing the magnitude of the problem,” the Democratic governor said.  On Friday, Trump revealed that the federal government actually sent “thousands” of ventilators for New York to use, but that they were sitting in a warehouse in Edison, New Jersey. “They were in the warehouse, ready to go, and New York never took them,” Trump said.  Cuomo said Friday night the ventilators were still in storage because “the hospitals don’t need them yet … the hospitals have enough ventilators today.”  READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE AT https://nypost.com/2020/03/30/trump-says-hes-sending-ventilators-directly-to-hospitals-battling-coronavirus/
