Paul Graham (@paulg) just donated $1,000,000 to http://Flexport.org . That gift will pay for almost all the protective gear required by the entire city of San Francisco's frontline healthcare workers. We'll likely distribute the equipment to hospitals in other locations too.

Potential donors: I've known Ryan for many years, and know how extraordinarily effective he is. So if the hospitals in your city lack protective equipment, ask Ryan, and he'll go get it for you.pic.twitter.com/w1KmcOMJ3g

he had to speak with his supervisor before they could figure out donations, and a decision still hasn't been made, so my new sense is this is both a problem of supply and a problem of bureaucracy
