Gray Matters Radio With Michael Devine

Is it fair to blame Trump for the supply shortages that our hospitals and healthcare workers are facing during this corona virus outbreak? To answer this question we invited our good friend Richard DeVine who is a 30 year veteran of the healthcare industry including being the SVP of Supply-Chain and Chief Resource Officer of Mount Carmel Healthcare System. So what did we learn from our guest? For one the supply shortage is a systemic issue that goes back to the 1980's and even if we knew 1 year ago about this pandemic, it would have been impossible to ramp up production to not have the shortages that we are experiencing. That being said our guest also said the military has had the inventory the entire time and should have been activated sooner.As always the answer is in The Gray so be sure to check out our latest podcast to make sure you understand why our doctors and nurses are in danger and based on our understanding of the real problems, are able to layout suggestions as to what needs to happen right now a
