That's small money,I mean if we can allocate 10 b towards reggae what's 1m per person?
That's on ventilator. Bila ventilator its 13,000
Is it the indiduals/insurance paying for it or its the US govt footing for the bills? Nakumbuka at the initial stages individuals used to foot for their own bills
US government gives the hospitals.
