CNN Cuomo Prime Time June 8, 2021 05:49:00

you look at basic things like personal protective equipment. and again, these exercises showed exactly how much we need. i can show you sort of where we were at the beginning of the pandemic when it came to n95 masks. we were making 35 million per month at that point. well knew we would need a lot more if there was ever going to be a pandemic. and by the middle of the year, we were basically importing half a billion masks from other countries, paying a loft money for that when we could have manufactured that on our own. april 2021 a couple of months ago we're sitting around 375 million. roughly, one mask for every citizen in the country. that's not an effective stockpile if we're suddenly going get hit again. there is two swab companies in the entire world. one in maine, one in italy. we got stymied by nasal swabs for a period of time. we didn't have enough reagents. we didn't have enough beds. all the things we knew we would need, it wasn't happening?
