I definitely appreciate the lessons we've learned, which we can pass along to.... Hopefully it doesn't happen again in our lifetimes. We know there is kind of a 100-year pattern for pandemics and that sort of thing.
I want to pick up on one thing. This is strictly from the lens of my riding. I talked to folks in hospitals and clinical settings and asked about the PPE. There's a cost for them as well for storing, and a lot of them were already over-equipped and not able to take more. That's not to say there weren't locations, maybe in northern or more remote communities that could have used them, but from my experience, it's just not as easy as bringing a truckload of supplies to your local hospital and saying, “Here you go. Now store it.”
