Failures across the board. Federal government, state government, local government, hospitals, insurance companies - no one in positions of authority saw this coming in January? No one with clout or power had the foresight to stockpile masks or other PPE, just in case?
Why isn't a national emergency stockpile being maintained when we've seen a dozen potential global pandemics in the last decade alone?
Apparently even officials aren't immune to senseless groupthink.
