good boi 
I am pretty much the same. For my parents and myself, I must have spent $1k on sanitizing supplies (a shit-ton of Lysol antibact. wipes, hand sanitizer, laundry sanitizer, Tide antibacterial spay, Lysol all-purpose cleaner, you name it) alone over the past 3 weeks or so. Can't find pretty much anything in stores, so amazon it is.

cheap ones to play around with (CNTY, SIEN, MFA)...will probably sell tomorrow for something else
lol trying to find masks on amazon you'd have to wait until May
What we do is reuse these medical masks - spray sanitize them and then wash them with soap and hot water in between uses. Only way for 20-30 masks to last you thru all this.

didn't Cuomo pass up an opportunity to buy ventilators a few years ago? that's what I am hearing 
This is just Donald passing the blame onto someone else, as he always does.
Truth is that ethanol will kill nearly everything but also removes oil from your hands and skin which in turn lowers its resistance to infections. Use it on surfaces rather than your hands. People should avoid using too much ethanol based hand sanitisers.
A surgeon friend got COVID on Friday and has now mostly recovered, still has a light fever and his cough is under control. He only used paracetamol. He's mid 30s. No panic, no visit to the hospital.
The USA will be hit hard and its because of idiots like Spring breakers not being vigilant. Opening churches and workplaces because Trump wants to go on his Easter egg hunt is ridiculous. USA will have a massive spike and even a couple of days without lockdown will have a huge effect.

A few years ago when there was no sign of an apparent threat? I remember Trump ignoring an existent threat less than a month ago

I think so too, I think major cities should always have stuff stores for things like this. I think we will have learned our lesson after this, hopefully we A.) address the supply chain issues and B.) have more of these devices available for such emergencies.

Wasn't Trump the one saying he saw Muslims dancing on the streets in NJ on 9/11?

I agree. I don't know how many ventilators they had in reserve but a city of this proportions should have a huge stockpile. That's in theory, at least. In practice, when you have such a huge population, packed like sardines, I think you are bound to underestimate how much of pretty much anything you may need down the line.
What America should take out of all this is that it is simply not ready to handle a crisis. So much of the production of essential supplies, supplies of strategic significance in the midst of a crisis, has been outsourced to freakin' China, and not only, over the years. Forget about the general public, hospital workers are running out of supplies necessary for them to do their job. US companies, the entire highly-touted US industrial complex, have been caught with their pants down and it's embarrassing how disjoint and disorganized everything is.
We sure love talking about how amazing we are, how we are the best at everything, but when push came to shove, we shat the bed. Makes sense, though - the only thing complacency breeds is ineptitude and failure.
