First responders and medical staff test positive for coronavirus

Due to limited availability, only employees that both had exposure to a known case & are showing symptoms will be tested, the employer communication states.

This is beyond dumb. kuow.org/stories/first-…
I should’ve said this is in Washington State USA.

1 member of staff has tested positive. The result of another 11 tests are awaiting.

They don’t have N95 masks, effective against respiratory viruses, and have had an email saying they won’t be issued.

Please NOT US-style HC.
And because they have the wrong protective gear and haven’t undergone drills front line workers are being taking out of circulation. 24 Firemen and 3 police officers who were first responders (why?!) from one town.

12 were showing symptoms (but not tested? WTF?!
This in a state that has recorded 9 #CV19 deaths in 8 days .

So they are likely to be facing an up rush of cases but aren’t keeping their front line staff well enough to care for them.

This should be called out very loudly.
