Examples include using federal money to build temporary medical facilities, buy ventilators and spur production of millions of virus tests. All of which may not only save lives but also hasten the day when life — and, by extension, economic activity — can return to normal. These measures have the additional benefit of doing what more traditional forms of stimulus do: Provide income and jobs at a time when both are badly needed. “The most important thing you can do for the economy is slow the virus or show it has a lower bound,” the economist [Austan Goolsbee](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgVeNFP0TfaHR0cHM6Ly90d2l0dGVyLmNvbS9BdXN0YW5fR29vbHNiZWUvc3RhdHVzLzEyMzk2NDk4MjE5MjcwNTk0Njg_dGU9MSZubD1kYXZpZC1sZW9uaGFyZHQmZW1jPWVkaXRfdHlfMjAyMDAzMTkmY2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9MzkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTY4OTgmc2VnbWVudF9pZD0yMjM4MyZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3JnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTIyMDIwMDMxOVcDbnl0QgoAHkVec16bS3PBUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) has written. “Pay sick not to work, buy ventilators, test/isolate. Nothing works until you get a handle on this.” Unfortunately, the federal government is not nearly focused enough on these kinds of measures.

Orders have not flooded in, she said, because most hospitals can’t afford to increase inventory of expensive equipment for what could turn out to be a short-term event. Hospitals’ hesitance to order ventilators is a problem that only the government can solve. It’s certainly true that the purchase and production of additional ventilators may turn out to be a money loser for some hospitals and companies. But the country needs additional ventilator capacity now. To Washington, the cost is practically a rounding error, relative to the stimulus sums — hundreds of billions of dollars — now being discussed. Can you think of a better stimulus idea than erring on the side of buying too many ventilators?
