NYC Fire-Sells $200 Million Of COVID-Era PPE Supplies For Just $500,000

by Tyler Durden

Who would have thought that all of the spur-of-the-moment government spending we engaged in to "beat the virus" over the last several years would turn out to be mismanaged and reckless?

That certainly seems to be the case now, as it is being reported that about $200 million worth of Covid supplies that were purchased during the Covid era in New York have been fire-sold off for just $500,000, according to Fox 5.

Bill Hammond, senior policy fellow at the conservative-leaning think tank The Empire Center, told Fox: "People were dying. There was reasonable concern that it was going to keep getting worse."

Among the emergency orders made by then-Mayor Bill de Blasio was an order for 3,000 emergency ventilators that cost the city $12 million. One investigative reporter, Greg Smith, said of the purchase: "They put them in the corner or in the closet or something, and they never turned [them] on."



And now with de Blasio out of office, new Mayor Eric Adams is in the process of selling excess masks, medical gowns, and ventilators for "pennies on the dollar" in online auctions, the report says.

On source told Fox: "The advertisement in the auction was for ‘nonfunctioning medical equipment for scrap metal,’ and they sold it to this junk dealer on Long Island for $24,600. That works out to about eight dollars per ventilator."

In sum, the city wound up selling $200 million of Covid-era equipment for just $500,000.

"I mean, they're trying to sell it, so it's still usable. Why don't they keep it? Because, I mean, are we really comfortable with the idea that this will never happen again?" Smith asked.

Mayor Adams has said that the city requires a 90 day stockpile, which is why he is selling off the rest: "The charter calls for a 90-day stockpile. After that 90 days, we have to make a determination, of my understanding, either to auction it off, give it away, or discard."

CDC Spreads False Information About COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Monitoring

Monday, Feb 27, 2023 - 04:00 PM

Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),

A top U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) official gave false information about COVID-19 vaccine safety monitoring to the agency’s vaccine advisory panel, and a spokesperson for the agency refused to correct the misinformation.



Dr. Tom Shimabukuro, director of the CDC’s Immunization Safety Office, presented on COVID-19 vaccine safety to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices on Feb. 24.

Shimabukuro went over updates to the safety signal for ischemic stroke following Pfizer bivalent booster vaccination that CDC officials detected in one of the agency’s monitoring systems.

After sharing the updates, Shimabukuro made the false statement.

No safety signals were detected for ischemic stroke for the primary series or monovalent boosters for Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines in U.S. and global monitoring,” Shimabukuro said.

That’s not true. The CDC identified ischemic stroke as a safety signal following Moderna and Pfizer vaccination after analyzing reports to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), a different system, which the agency co-manages.

Asked for comment, Shimabukuro did not respond. But a CDC spokesperson doubled down on the false claim.

“The statement from Dr. Shimabukuro’s slides is correct. There have not been any safety signals detected at this time in the U.S. for ischemic stroke for the primary series or monovalent boosters,” Katherina Grusich, the spokesperson, told The Epoch Times in an email.

The CDC has previously offered misinformation and refused to correct it.

Barbara Loe Fisher, president and co-founder of the National Vaccine Information Center, said what unfolded was concerning.

“Those of us who worked with Congress to secure vaccine safety informing, recording, and reporting provisions in the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act—of which VAERS was one—are deeply concerned that federal health officials are deliberately ignoring signals in VAERS and that mRNA COVID shots are causing ischemic strokes and other potentially fatal complications,” Fisher told The Epoch Times in an email.

The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines utilize messenger RNA, or mRNA, technology.

Bivalent boosters from both companies were authorized in the fall of 2022, but the primary series are still composed of the original vaccines, sometimes referred to as monovalent shots.

Shimabukuro’s statement had an impact. After his presentation, while the slide with the false information was on the screen, a member of the panel highlighted it.

I think it’s important to note [the statement] for the public,” Veronica McNally, president and CEO of the Fanny Strong Foundation, said, before reading it in full.

Another False StatementDr. Helen Keipp Talbot, a member of the advisory panel, also offered false information about the safety signal.

The only thing you can remotely nail Fauci for is not reporting how some of our tax dollars went toward "gain of function" research.
Gee, he knew about the correlation between deadly bat research(he was funding) at the beginning of Covid then immediately ran interference and lies about it for the next 2.5 years....
No he did not lie. Dr. Fauci did not actively participated in so-called "gain of function" research.
He just paid for it. By your logic, a mob boss ordering a hit is innocent.
