⚡️THREAD ⚡️ On Friday, I told the story of a Northwestern Memorial Hospital psychiatrist whose unit did not use protective gear like masks and gowns, known as #PPE. She works in a communal space, where patients can mingle over board games. @WBEZ @WBEZpolitics @NPR
Here's how @RonkePedersonMD put it: 'It’s kind of like telling a soldier to go to war and bring back the enemy with them into their community, cause that’s what we’re doing without PPE.' #GetMePPE #GetMePPEChicago @GovPritzker
I'm hearing about this every day from health care workers on the front lines in the Chicago area -- that they don’t have enough #PPE. That nurses & doctors are reusing masks, and even gowns if they’re not soiled.
