  1. https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/nursing/dc-hospital-nurse-resigns-over-lack-of-ppe.html Kelly Stanton, who's been a nurse for 28 years, said she decided to put in her resignation after clinicians were told to wear the same mask and gown for a whole shift. I’m not expert but I think this could turn the clinician into a infection source. Patient A coughs and something stick on the gown/mask, patient B gets it..etc

  5. Variale predicted dire consequences if calls for help continue to soar and the number of emergency personnel continues to drop from illness. “If this continues we fully expect to have bodies on the street,” he said.

  10. It's months too late for a cordon sanitaire (temporary border for infection control). Closing schools, parks, restaurants, etc. and aggressively disinfecting places that must remain open such as markets and testing locations will continue to be helpful until herd immunity takes over. We need to try to blunt the peak, reduce initial viral loads, and deny opportunities for explosive propagation.

  12. The biggest failure here is way too many hospitals and medical organizations have no pandemic plan. They don't have any PPE stockpiled or even remotely ready. Too many admin are in the system who are clueless. The health system has been not managed very well for quite some time. The time to prep for any pandemic is before it exists. We saw this failure in the Ebola outbreak. Unfortunately nobody took notice and corrected it. This really caught us unprepared. I believe heads are gonna roll for this. I see big changes coming in the medical system.

    I'm guessing rich people are deciding not to draw attention to themselves now that the USA has become a 3rd world country as well.
