Yes you and i did post several articles about Coronavirus early
on, I have been in healthcare for over 20 years and been
through the HIV/AIDS, SARS, etc..days working in NYC. Back
in Jan I posted that it would get real bad in the next couple of
months, and I got some not so nice messages back from people on
here. That didn't bother what bothered me was the lack of
insight and not taking it serious and look where we are now.
I tried to prepare people in the health field back in the beg
of January to prepare for this in US, but it fell on deaf ears.
As they say, you can only lead a horse to water.
my wife is Chinese and was in Wuhan in early Dec. NO she didn't
bring it back, but we have watched the situation there since then.
Plus she has access to channels over there that we don't see
because it's not reported here
I am a consultant now for major medical manf companies, and I
told them all that they need to ramp up production here for PPE
equipment, That the factories in China are done and will not
be online form months and that what they do manf will be used for
their own people. In a communist country you theoretically
cannot own anything. Your assets are not protected at the end
of the day., The US is so used too paying pennies for products in
China but now we are paying the ultimate price by not being able to
provide masks, gowns, goggles, hand sanitizer to the hospitals and
caregivers that so desperately need it. Then we have an admin
who totally fumbled on the testing and we are way behind the curve
now. So my recommendation to them is, look to start manf
here in the US and people will have to get used to paying more but
you have control over the supply chain.
