California ventilators en route to New York, New Jersey, Illinois - The Boston Globe

The California National Guard flew ventilators Tuesday to New York, New Jersey and Illinois as part of an effort to help other states manage a crush of coronavirus hospitalizations, the governor's office said.

“We couldn’t be more proud as a state to be sending those ventilators back East," Gov. Gavin Newsom said.

The announcement that ventilators had been shipped — 100 to each state — came a day after Newsom said the state would lend 500 to states in need. The remaining 200 will be split between Maryland, Delaware, the District of Columbia and Nevada and will be sent by plane or truck in the coming days, said Brian Ferguson, a spokesman for California's Office of Emergency Services.

Great move by California. That being said does NY need the extra ventilators. Admissions to ICU is way down thank goodness.
 
Why none for Michigan? They have a lot more cases - and deaths - than Illinois.

De Blasio just said they didn't need them. But he's not been a very reliable source.
 
Finally. Adults working together during a pandemic.
