time that is lacking on the part of many severely ill Covid patients. It'll be way too late. FL's idiotic governor announced the same thing the other day, so just wait, every other red state will soon follow w/ such announcements...TX is already running out of nurses, and I assume other medical personnel (from prior DU article read several days ago), hired over 2000 more from out state (my question was 'from where'?).

I suspect the Feds won't be a major source of help either for what help there is, is probably already being used...
