OK.

I’m a 64 yo former ER doc working Urgent Care now.

We do not have appropriate PPE because it’s just not available.

Every time I work I am exposed to about 40 people, lots with fever, cough, sore throat etc. Our office has had several people test positive for Covid 19 already and we’ve only been testing for a week or so.

What do you think the odds of my getting sick, and passing it on to my wife who is 62 and has arthritis and valvular heart disease?

Doctors, medical staff and their families should be first. They are at higher risk and we need them to provide the medical care.

Losing medical workers to illness in large numbers will crash the system the same as to many patients at once.

Stop whining, America, suck it up and do what needs doing.
