“Researchers from Harvard Medical School, University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine and University of Pennsylvania Health Systems wrote Thursday in the Annals of Internal Medicine that the CDC’s recommendations were appropriate. They argued that additional protective measures could increase contamination risks. “Introducing new and unfamiliar forms of personal protective equipment could lead to self-contamination during removal of such gear,” the authors wrote. “Requiring hazmat suits and respirators will probably decrease the frequency of provider-patient contacts, inhibit providers’ ability to examine patients and curtail the use of diagnostic tests.””
You’d just hurt yourself if you used those fancy suits so you’re better off without them!
