Vaccination supply and logistics are part of an unprecedented new normal for Florida Emergency Management.

“All these f ventilators. This is what is going on. Brand new. Brand f new.”
The video is from a resident who was taking some garbage to the South Dade Landfill last week. He was stunned to see pallets full of brand new, wrapped medical ventilators dumped as bulky trash among mattresses, tires and other waste.

What’s dumped is usually plowed under within a day, so those ventilators are probably gone now.
