Just read where hospital personnel are making masks from supplies bought at hobby shops.
Is this for real?
Astonishingly it is! As well as disappointing, I might add.
I am a retired R.N. and have a dear friend who is Chief/Director of Nursing for a New Jersey hospital. They are indeed wearing sports goggles, ski mask shields, visors from motorcycle helmets etc in their I.C.U.; as well as improvising and rationing other crucial supplies.

That's true. Not everyone will be affected that way, but some will.
Yeah, I'm definitely interested in hearing from health professionals on how many cases of recovery have had reduced lung capacity as that is definitely scary!
It is a lie that masks are available. I have family members who are health care workers in hospitals. They are rationing masks already in a state that has 44 cases. The reason is, once again, the failure of the testing program. It is taking 5-7 days to rule out COVID-19 in a patient and all the while they need to use PPE as if the person has it.
Yes, my sister works as an MA in a doctor's office. They have been out of masks for a week, and no chance of supplies coming anytime soon. What will we do when all of our healthcare workers are sick and unable to work?

It is. Like with the virus itself, it's hard to know at this point in time what the damage will be.
They failed to mention that China tried covering it up and caused it to spread.
The vid is not to cover who to blame or politics, but to inform you on how the virus works and how to keep yourself from catching it and spreading it...

Meanwhile SK has testing booths that can get test results in 7 minutes. Why are we not asking for their help in figuring out how to test in a short time frame?
It was a better optic the other day when he praised the media, the strategy being used by governors as it relates to him.
You cannot tamp down that massive ego for long. He held it together for one day and was able to sound serious and presidential. That's got to be a record for him.
