Now, the Gov. says all of the models and projections were wrong (but it’s not his fault)
=============
You could see this one coming a mile away…
A couple of weeks ago, Gov. Cuomo repeatedly (and loudly) sounded the alarm that New York needs 30,000 ventilators from the Feds .. and urged President Trump to use the Defense Production Act to force companies to make more ventilators, pronto.
Trump pushed back, saying that the numbers just didn’t pass the smell test.
Countering that was easy pickings for Cuomo, who immediately shot back.
Gov. Cuomo defended the state’s request for 30,000 more ventilators to save coronavirus patients.
After all, he gathered predictions from Weill Cornell Medicine, the CDC and blue chip consulting firm McKinsey and Company.
“All the predictions say you could have an apex needing 140,000 beds and about 40,000 ventilators. We only have 11.000.”
Upping the ante, Cuomo decided that he could use the situation to school the seat-of-the-pants President.
