This is a personal request. This morning my brother told me that he will be on duty taking care of coronavirus patients. In between seven-day stretches of patient care, he& #39;ll be in quarantine. I& #39;m not sure when I& #39;m going to see him again.
That said: if you have protective personal equipment in your home (N95 masks, face shields, etc) I need you to call your hospital and ask if they will accept donations. If you don& #39;t have them, I need you to not buy any.
Why? Because in one month America& #39;s hospitals will be out of PPE. When that happens, doctors and nurses will start getting sick. If you think America& #39;s medical system is swamped now, imagine it without doctors and nurses.
They can& #39;t do their jobs if they aren& #39;t safe. Do your part not to exacerbate the shortage, and call ALL your elective officials to tell them to mobilize to get PPE back in hospitals. If you don& #39;t know how to call, ask me.
The life you save may be your own. Get our government to act, and do your part not to exacerbate the shortage.
