Florida is requesting hundreds of ventilators from the federal government after a surge in COVID-19 across the state, according to a Department of Health and Human Services planning document obtained by ABC News affiliate Local 10. The request was made on Friday for 300 ventilators “to replace expended state stores,” the document said. It was not clear how the ventilators would be allocated but they were expected to arrive in the state on Monday, according to the outlet. https://www.rawstory.com/greg-abbott-2654606305/ Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who earlier this year signed a bill banning local governments from enacting mask mandates and vaccine mandates, is now taking extraordinary measures to fight the novel coronavirus pandemic in his state. Via the New York Times' Jesus Jiménez, Abbott announced on Monday that he will have staffing agencies look for out-of-state medical personnel to help Texas hospitals deal with a surge in COVID cases. |
