EXCLUSIVE FOOTAGE: NYC Hospital Purposely Trashing PPE And Medical Supplies During The Pandemic!
NYC was the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak during the spring at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020.
PPE and other med supplies were critical at this juncture. In 2020 one of the greatest problems was securing enough PPE to secure the hospitalized patients.

With no action from the federal government to coordinate medical supplies, Cuomo says NY will work with six other Northeastern states to buy $5 billion worth of PPE, supplies, and test equipment. This will ensure every hospital can meet the newly required 90-day stockpile of PPE. pic.twitter.com/9EYKjm60NW

This is horrifying.
The national stockpile is being sent to private companies who are then SELLING it to the highest bidder. DURING A CRISISThis is why States and Hospitals cannot get what they need.

Governor Cuomo just said it…Trump says we have millions of masks, plenty of PPE and thousands of ventilators…WHERE ARE THEY? Is Trump lying? Is Pence (clutch the pearls) lying? If not, WHERE ARE THE SUPPLIES?

Fake News 60 Minutes tonight blaming Pres. Trump for no PPE in NY hospitals. But, the NY Mayor and Governor said on the record that the WH sent them EVERYTHING they asked for. Why didn't CBS confront Gov. Cuomo or the Mayor and ask them why a shortage?? Fake News CBS.

At the height of NYC’s C-19 outbreak, Cuomo announced a New Hospital Network Central Coordinating Team.
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced a new hospital network Central Coordinating Team that will help facilitate a more coordinated and strategic approach among the state’s healthcare system in combating the COVID-19 pandemic.
The coordinating team will help implement the statewide public-private hospital plan, which the Governor announced yesterday, to share information, supplies, staff and patients among hospitals across the State. The team will be responsible for organizing upstate to downstate staffing; assisting Elmhurst Hospital and other stressed hospitals; setting patient thresholds for hospitals; organizing patient transfers to other hospitals and the USNS Comfort; coordinating State-City stockpiles and individual hospital stockpiles; and facilitating staffing recruitment.
The team will be led by the State Department of Health and includes the Westchester, New York City and Long Island healthcare systems, the Greater New York Hospital Association and the Healthcare Association of New York State. The team will also work with FEMA and the federal government.
PPE Shortage is still a major problem at many facilities.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo responds to President Trump's suggestion that PPE is potentially being stolen from New York hospitals.

Trump raised the possibility that someone was stealing the PPE from NY hospitals.
Is this the beautiful that the current occupant of the White House was describing. Nurses dying in New York hospitals & dressed in garbage bags trying to protect themselves from being next. @realDonaldTrump, you have blood on your hands. Your inaction is fucking sick. pic.twitter.com/pY3fL46Csq

The Whistleblower stated that the hospital, on purpose, tossed the PPE and other medical supplies in the trash.
One former Northwell-Staten Island University Hospital – North Campus worker shared these shocking allegations. The Whistleblower shared a video to support his claims.
An ex-materials management employee, Anthony Russo, stated that he got instructions to throw away supplies three to four times per week.
The order appeared at the beginning of the pandemic and continued to be implemented until the NYC Covid-19 vaccine deadline appeared.
The trashed applies included masks N-95, isolation gowns, gloves, lumbar puncture kits, IV starter kits, Shampoos, lotions, socks, diapers, and many more.
Why would someone order Russo to throw critical PPE in the dumpster?
During the pandemic outbreak, the hospital can’t throw the critical med supplies. If the hospital has too many patients, they would need those supplies.
What were the financial implications for the hospital?
These are questions that warrant an audit and investigation.
