This article, originally post in August of 2018, details how much of our Rx drugs and supplies come from China: https://sharylattkisson.com/2020/03/__trashed-2/

As a response, these companies, Ford, GE and 3M are joining together to spin up for domestic production of PPE and ventilators: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/ford-partners-with-ge-3m-to-build-ventilators-covid-19-protective-equipment-2020-03-24?mod=mw_latestnews

Facts are, no matter how much they demand for PPE, and ventilators (governor Cuomo during his mealtdown yesterday), no one can just wave a magic wand and it suddenly appears.
If it comes from overseas, no one can order another country to send us all their supplies.
And to make it domestically, there needs to be a factory located, base materials sourced, production lines set up, and workers hired. That all takes time.
MSM needs to get off their, “I want it my way! Right away!” mentality.
