What specific actions do you think California should be taking?  And, where should the money for said actions come from, as the state can't deficit spend, and tax revenue are about to collapse? 

These kinds of general criticisms are not useful.  If you have specifics, then please share.  I've been explicit in my criticisms of the federal response as to exactly what they have not been doing.

I was replying to this comment: "Friends of friends work at UCSF and they have been preparing for this for weeks; they simply lack critical equipment and infrastructures that neither the city nor state of California can singlehandedly provide."

California has the highest tax revenues of any state in the union: $175 billion in 2018, nearly twice that of the number two state, New York collecting $88 billion. I wasn't criticizing anything, I was simply wondering why the state can't provide the required infrastructure or critical equipment. Where is the money going? Certainly not to the roads or schools, or in this case, the healthcare system. . . .
