Mr. Fife Posted April 4, 2020 at 06:23 PM Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 at 06:23 PM Gun manufacturer Remington recently offered the state of New York use of their facilities to help with crucially needed medical supplies for healthcare workers on the frontlines battling the Wuhan coronavirus. The state government has yet to accept Remington's offer. New York, and New York City in particular, has been hit hard by COVID-19. As of Thursday, the city has 47,439 confirmed coronavirus cases and 1,374 deaths. Since New York has been an early hotspot, Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) has highlighted the state's need for personal protective equipment and medical equipment, such as ventilators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanook Posted April 5, 2020 at 01:49 PM Share Posted April 5, 2020 at 01:49 PM People have noticed that during his daily televised demands for PPE, he has a mountain of PPE right behind him. Boxes and boxes of masks, gloves, etc. sitting there behind him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiet Observer Posted April 5, 2020 at 03:10 PM Share Posted April 5, 2020 at 03:10 PM People have noticed that during his daily televised demands for PPE, he has a mountain of PPE right behind him. Boxes and boxes of masks, gloves, etc. sitting there behind him. It is possible that they are empty boxes placed there for dramatic effect and that the devices have already been distributed. As far as working with Remington: It is not like Remington has experience in manufacturing precision equipment that can operate under various conditions.

steveTA84 Posted April 5, 2020 at 05:26 PM Share Posted April 5, 2020 at 05:26 PM ^^^ So true. Those evil gun companies have never helped out to produce needed goods during a time of crisis. Rockola, Smith-Corona, GM (Inland) are prime examples...... To those unaware, they were companies that started producing M1 carbines and other firearms during WW2, but prior to WW2 did not produce firearms. They helped out in a time of need, much like some gun companies are doing now that are offering to produce medical equipment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then when you have millions of N95 masks and thousands of ventilators, send them to states who want to buy them. FWIW, please emboss your products: A Remington Saved my Life!"

2A4Cook Posted April 6, 2020 at 04:32 AM Share Posted April 6, 2020 at 04:32 AM The only thing that would surprise me these days is if a Democrat did something that did not have their political agenda as a primary consideration. These people are sick in the head. I can't even stand to watch our governor's daily briefings on the current situation because lardo uses it as an opportunity to bash and blame Trump. Give it up, Jelly Belly; you have 0 chance of being elected president in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT1 Posted April 9, 2020 at 06:00 PM Share Posted April 9, 2020 at 06:00 PM Since there aren't many teams that are capable of having the know how of building ventilators, and of those that do, they are already doing so.Remington didn't offer to make PPE or ventilators. They only offered space that someone else could use to make them. It was more of a PR move than an actual offer of something useful. If there were teams of people capable of running the assembly of said items and actually had all the stock of materials to do so and no place to work from, then you'd have a story.But this is a non story.
