Jared Kushner: "it's supposed to be our stockpile, not ... state stockpiles".

[left-of-center2012]

After Jared Kushner asserted that the Strategic National Stockpile of medical supplies “is supposed to be our stockpile, not supposed to be state stockpiles,” the Department of Health and Human Services decided they had to comply with the new world order.

So they changed the language on the website for the Strategic National Stockpile. It used to say that:
"When state, local, tribal, and territorial responders request federal assistance to support their response efforts,
the stockpile ensures that the right medicines and supplies get to those who need them most during an emergency.”

It now says its “role is to supplement state and local supplies during public health emergencies and that “states have products stockpiled, as well.”

What is in the SNS?

The SNS is a national repository of antibiotics, chemical antidotes, antitoxins, life-support medications, IV administration, airway maintenance supplies, and medical/surgical items.

Who authorized the SNS program?

In 1998, Congress appropriated funds for the CDC to acquire a pharmaceutical and vaccine stockpile to counter potential biological and chemical threats and threats from widespread diseases that could affect large numbers of persons in the civilian population.
The program was originally called the National Pharmaceutical Stockpile (NPS) program, but it has since been extended to involve much more than just drugs.

On March 1, 2003, the NPS became the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) program managed jointly by DHS and HHS.
With the signing of the BioShield legislation, the SNS program was returned to HHS for oversight and guidance.

Effective Oct. 1, 2018, the Strategic National Stockpile is managed by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
The SNS is designed to supplement and resupply state and local public health agencies in the event of a national emergency anywhere and at anytime within the United States or its territories.


Who manages the SNS program?
Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR), HHS
Federal agencies, primarily ASPR, are responsible for maintenance and delivery of SNS assets, but state and local authorities must plan to receive, store, stage, distribute, and dispense the assets.

When would the stockpile be used?

The plan is to deliver critical medical resources to the site of a national emergency when local public health resources would likely be or have already been overwhelmed by the magnitude of the medical emergency.
Examples might be emergencies resulting from a major earthquake, pandemic flu, a smallpox event, and terrorist events of chemical, biological, radiological/nuclear, or explosive incidents.
...

Who can request assets of the SNS?

State departments of health, usually in conjunction with the state governor
National agencies e.g., FEMA, FBI in certain circumstances
To receive SNS assets, the affected state's governor's office would directly request the deployment of the SNS assets from HHS.

5. Jared can't read

He also doesn't understand the meaning of us or the United States.

Trump family circus of incompetence continues.

12. It is not incompetence.

It is greed and selfishness on the part of the Trump family. They are very competent....at thinking only of themselves and the rest of us are on our own.

[Nululu]

14. Not either or but both

Yes, good of you to remind everyone how their venal greed motivates their action. But there's also complete ignorance and incompetence because their greed and selfishness blinds them to societal needs.

9. It's a misunderstanding on your part.

What Jared means is that the stockpile belongs to the Trump family. Don’t you know that they own the entire government and it’s theirs to dispose of as they see fit?

[Jamastiene]

13. THIS

I want to scream when someone mentions the Trump family and incompetence. They are NOT incompetent. They are VERY competent when it comes to thinking only of themselves and coming up with ways to screw the rest of us.

10. I'm so sick of this shit!

These fuckers continue to act like everything in the federal system belongs to them personally. This is even more galling because you know damn well that these grifters never contributed a penny towards paying for any of it. It belongs to all the citizens of this country and appreciation for those of us who fortunately have the ability to contribute towards the common good. We payed our fair share, they did not! It's way past the time that the so called "liberal" media starts challenging them on this crap.

11. "OURS?" I thought the

Federal government was funded by the United States of America. It does belong to US, not the Trump Criminal Enterprise!
