Ave 3. 5 we have health care workers, first responders, others and 1 million for securing supplies. Nder the defense we have enacted the act. We used it three or four times. I pulled it back three times because the companies came through in the end. They didnt need the act. It has been great leverage. Have instituted against general electric. We thought we had a deal for 40,000 ventilators and all of a sudden it came back to 6000 and they talked about a higher price and we were discussing, so i dont like it.
