PHYSICAL CLASSROOM, THOSE
CHANCES ARE SLIM.
47-AND-A-HALF MILLION
DOLLARS HAVE BEEN APPROVED FOR

YET BUT SUPPLIES ARE RUNNING
LOW.
NURSES WOULD BE WILLING TO
RESORT TO HOME MADE MASKS.
SURGICAL MASKS ARE THREE TIMES
MORE EFFECTIVE.
EMILY, A NURSE WITH THE
CRITICAL CARE UNIT SAYS SHE AND
HER COLLEAGUES ARE NOT PROPERLY
USING THEM TO HELP THE SUPPLY
LAST LONGER, THEY ARE USING THE
FILTER MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY.
AND BEING ON THE FRONT LINE SHE
IS WORRIED ABOUT WHAT THAT
MIGHT MEAN LONG TERM.
WE HAVE TO USE ONE MASK FOR
ONE SHIFT.
WE ARE USING SPECIAL WIPES TO
WIPE THEM DOWN BUT THAT IS NOT
THE SAME AS HAVING A SUPPLY.

HIS SYMPTOMS AT HOME AND HIS
WIFE TOOK HIM TO THE DOCTOR BUT
AT THAT POINT WAS UNABLE TO GET
TESTED.
THEY WENT BACK HOME AND A WEEK

THE ER.

COVID-19 AND PNEUMONIA SO THEY
THINK HE GOT IT FROM A NURSE HE
HAD SAT NEAR WHEN HE WAS OUT TO
CO-WORKERS SINCE SHE HAD TESTED
POSITIVE.
I WAS HONESTLY RELIEVED.
IT SOUNDS CRAZY BUT BEING HERE
FOR 11 OR TWELVE DAYS AND NOT
KNOWING WHAT IS HAPPENING AND
TO NOT WONDER ANYMORE WAS
REFRESHING BECAUSE WE KNEW THAT
THERE IS A COURSE OF ACTION
THAT COULD BE TAKEN.
BRIAN IS STILL ON OXYGEN AT
THE HOSPITAL.
HE SAYS HE DOESN'T FEEL ANY
BETTER BUT NURSES ARE SAYING
