Federal Government’s N95 Mask Stockpile Is Nearly Depleted; Critics See Trump’s Colo. Ventilator Decision Influenced By Political Tensions

April 9, 2020 Morning Briefing

HHS confirms that 90% of the personal protective equipment in the stockpile has been distributed to state and local governments. The Trump administration announced that it will restrict the export of certain face masks and gloves for four months in an effort to make sure U.S. health care workers are protected. Meanwhile, questions are raised about how supplies are being distributed to the states. In one example, the Trump Administration will send Colorado 100 ventilators. But critics say that President Donald Trump initially ignored the Democratic governor’s request for 500 and only agreed to send some when a Republican senators asked. And hospitals begin preparing guidelines on rationing care.

A Timeline Of Trump’s Shifting Rhetoric: President’s Claims That He Always Took Pandemic Seriously Proven False

March 18, 2020 Morning Briefing

When asked in January if he was worried about a pandemic, President Donald Trump said, “No, not at all. We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.” This week he claimed he knew it was going to be a pandemic before it was called a pandemic. Meanwhile, a recent poll finds that many Americans don’t trust his response to the crisis.

Trump Itching To Reopen Country, But Public Health Officials And Governors Worry About Another Surge

April 13, 2020 Morning Briefing

President Donald Trump is signaling his interest in reopening the country by May 1, though the final decision for each state lays with governors. As of now there doesn’t seem to be a federal plan for how vital functions like air and surface transport can safely resume without triggering a new wave of mass infections, and state leaders and public health officials warn about returning to normalcy too quickly. Dr. Anthony Fauci suggested that there might be a possibility of a “rolling re-entry” in May.

Trump Invokes War Powers To Boost Ventilator Production As New York, Other States Face Grim Shortages

April 3, 2020 Morning Briefing

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo warns that his state will run out of ventilators in six days. President Donald Trump and his administration are taking steps to ease those shortages–like invoking the Defense Production Act to help secure supplies for manufacturers–governors say they are falling fall short of the massive need. Meanwhile, ventilators aren’t a cure-all for virus patients: the survival rate for those who have to go on one may be as low as 20%.

Government To Buy 167M Masks From 3M For Front-Line Workers Following Contentious Negotiations

April 7, 2020 Morning Briefing

The federal government’s decision to use the Defense Production Act was key to shifting the trajectory of negotiations between the two sides, Trump administration officials say. Health care workers are issuing desperate calls for more masks. In one Detroit hospital system alone, 700 employees have tested positive for the virus. Meanwhile, the military steps up its efforts to produce masks, as well. And despite experts’ guidance, President Donald Trump has yet to don a mask in public.
