Ventilators Bound For Barbados Allegedly Seized By US by bestpunterever: 11:22pm On Apr 07, 2020
Twenty ventilators that were sent to Barbados by an unnamed philanthropist were allegedly seized without explanation by the United States, Barbadian Health Minister Lt.-Col. Jeffrey Bostic said in a national briefing, according to the Miami Herald.
Though the philanthropist was not identified,
Bostic denied earlier reports that it was Barbadian singer-songwriter Rihanna, who had pledged to send several ventilators to her home country. Five of those ventilators are still slated to arrive next week, he said according to the Herald.
Barbados is one of several countries, as well as US states, to have accused the Trump
administration of unfairly diverting and securing medical equipment essential in the fight against coronavirus, including ventilators, protective gear and N95 respirator masks.
Last Friday, German paper Der Tagesspiegel
reported that a shipment of equipment from Berin bound for China was intercepted and acquired by the US.
Berlin's Interior Minister Andreas Geisel slammed the move as "modern piracy" and said that the US was not abiding by international trade rules, opting instead to use "wild west methods." Also Friday, a report in The Guardian said that a shipment of medical equipment bound for France from Shanghigh was taken by the US instead. In this case, the French official – identified as Valérie Pécresse, president of the hard-hit Île-de-France region – claimed that the US outbid the French by offering three times the price and offering to pay upfront.
“I can’t do that. I’m spending taxpayers’ money and I can only pay on delivery having checked the quality,” Pécresse told BFMTV.

Well, it so happens that the Governor of New York started selling the excess 45,000 ventilators that were sitting idly in a warehouse. He had to after he was caught lying that New York had a shortage of ventilators.

Democrats are evil.

Besides, ventilators are only alleviates and do not treat or cure Corona.

You do know that stockpiling of ventilators is in anticipation of the peak of the curve when the healthcare system will experience it's deluge of infected people.

The rationale is that, you don't start building a well when you get thirsty. You don't start searching for ventilators at the peak of the curve.

Cuomo lied that he never received any ventilators and that the State was facing shortages despite this being to the contrary.

He had 45,000 VENTILATORS in warehouses and still kept complaining.

You Buharist zombies are no differnet than the deranged leftist communist idiots that are plaguing America.

You think you are wise but are as foolish as the idiots you support.

Uncle Tom I'm not interested in your story.
Selfish America will come to the realization, that 20 million ventilators cannot save America, from a virus that is now AIRBORNE.
Only those who understands, that best things in life are free, will survive covid 19 in America.

Is that why he should alarmingly bark like a petulant dog, about lack of ventilators, when he have got plethora of ventilator to afford him the laxity to sell.

suddenly realize how idiotic you look trying to defend the untenable? don't fight it; it usually comes with the symptom of prevarication or urge to launch into petty bickering, as soon as you realize how cerebrally bereft you're especially when you're trying to perpetuate your dumb boorish self as intelligent.

Lolcheesy Don't delude yourself, kid. You're too inconsequential to inspire my writing genre.

A simple perusal of my initial post would've availed you this your childish recrimination. anyway, one shouldn't expect much from a person cerebrally handicapped, especially when you can't trust them to discern a thing as overt as the sun. which no wonder the rabid defense of bare-face disingenuous idiocy of suppose new York governor.
