listing for the land:

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1...03243189_zpid/

that's the Zillow listing, could not find it on Realtor.com.

I know the lady selling the lot, and i've walked it a few times.

you don't have to haul water, you could dig a well and hope for the best, or there is a firm that will deliver bulk water for a fee.

Same reason we have such ridiculous laws in this country for certain things. You're better of murdering someone here than if you street race or drive impaired.
I have an inlaw that works for a state Department of Public Health that is virtue signaling like crazy about what people need to be doing.
Yeah, no mention of the fact that they were in Mexico a week ago...

F'king liberals.

Being this is an unprecedented issue and ramp up time is needed as these are not simple masks I don't know where he thinks we can pull them out of.

Everyday patients are prioritized, surgeons choose patients based upon survivability, hospitals turn people away due to lack of ability to pay so everyday already they're picking and choosing.

He's speaking on a worse case scenario and if every case hit at once(and all needed ventilators). Could they be short ventilators.. Sure definitely possible but could happen at a small hospital in middle of nowhere with limited resources with just a few needing them at once

Or, or, or....they could just give the patients the drug cocktail that seems to work for most Wu flu patients, and skip all the ventilator bullshit. Can't do that in Nevada, though, because the Nevada governor outlawed that treatment, because Orange Man bad, or something.

The sad fact is the world is way over due from a Plague event. Sooner or later the right mix of RNA and dna will create something that will kill a massive amount of people.

We keep forgetting the lessons of the past and will pay the price in the future.

His other point was that different regions are going to reach their peaks at different times. New York is peaking first, so his argument is to send the resources to New York first. The unstated assumption is that after the peak passes and demand for ventilators goes down the excess could be shipped off to the next peaking area.
