My mom has been in contact daily which I appreciate. So the deal at her hospital is that she is starting to get concerned with how the hospital is approaching this. First thing she did when she went in is ask where the N95 masks are. They are now locked up because workers were stealing supplies, which actually ended up with some folks being fired for stealing. So next she ask what are the requirements to get one. She was told that if a patient has suspected symptoms or is testing positive. She said this is concerning because while it is understandable why this is being done, given how the virus presents that is not enough to minimize exposure. Especially given how symptoms overlap with the flu and also of course with people being asymptomatic. She is in a high risk profession, high risk age, and mentioned that she has to work directly with people's airways which is increasing her chances. She was very concerned given the requirements to get proper PPE is putting her a higher risk. She said going in without proper ppe is like sending a cop on a job without his gun. It's vital to her job and both her safety and the patient.
