The governor of Illinois said it is chaos out there
States are competing against one another for medical supplies and, in many cases, overpaying amid a federal shortage, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said Sunday.
“We’re competing against each other, we’re competing against other countries,“ Pritzker said on CNN's “State of the Union.”“It‘s a wide Wild West … out there. And, indeed, we’re overpaying, I would say, for [personal protective equipment] because of that competition.“ Pritzker said he’s gotten a fraction of the masks, gloves and gowns requested from the federal government. As a result, Pritzker said he’s deployed staff to purchase supplies on the open market internationally.
“I’ve got people on the phones, working the phones across the world, frankly, to get this stuff shipped to Illinois,” Pritzker said.“We have moved on now to a stay-at-home order,“ he said. “These should have been done nationally. They haven't been. But I have got to protect the 12.7 million people that live in my state. And I'm dedicated to that. It's their health and safety that matters most to me. It will work. It will work.
The president later complained about Pritzker’s complaints. He tweeted: “@JBPritzker, Governor of Illinois, and a very small group of certain other Governors, together with Fake News @CNN & Concast , shouldn’t be blaming the Federal Government for their own shortcomings. We are there to back you up should you fail, and always will be!“
