Frontline workers deserve safe workplaces especially during a pandemic. That's why AFT is making an unprecedented investment in PPE for workers across the country. #GetMePPE https://youtu.be/dYq-vrnTZ6A
#Nurses are experiencing severe shortages in PPE as they work on the frontlines to provide vital care to #COVID19 patients. Tell Congress to support the Medical Supply Chain Emergency Act to fully exercise the #DPANOW to #GetMePPE & keep RNs safe!
Thanks to @SEIUHCMN for this push to demand workers get the PPE they need. I'm sharing this in solidarity with them and all working people on the frontlines of this pandemic, including my union siblings in @AFSCMEMN5 / @AFSCME. #ProtectAllWorkers #GetMePPE @SEIU @realDonaldTrump
So many lessons here. Will we/the US learn from any of them? Aggressive testing. Trust in the system and leadership. No cost for care. Robust public health interventions. #GETMEPPE #PAIDLEAVE ...

This is not the time for hospitals to worry about reputation & publicity! This is the time to worry about patients with #COVID19 and #FrontLineHeroes.
@AmerMedicalAssn @PatriceHarrisMD supports wearing own PPE if nothing else available!
#ProtectHealthCareWorkers #GetMePPE
And we finally heard from JCAHO @TJCommission
They support the use of PPE brought from home!

@CDCgov guidelines are based on what we have not what we need. It is an excuse for admins to provide minimal possible PPE to HCWs.
@GovRonDeSantis can we also have better guidelines in place?

I am speechless. This is disheartening. When so many reports are coming of HCWs getting sick or dying, government lets this to happen.

Dr. Smith is my colleague and a friend. She is an incredible clinician, leader for residents @SinaiEM, and mentor for countless. In bringing the #GetMePPE to the front pages, now she is also a hero. #COVIDー19

Today I was officially instructed to wear trash bags instead of blue plastic gowns. To cover the back - put trash bag around your neck & tie down the ends. Modern doctor's superhero cape.

Three cheers for @NebraskaMed - not a video, but these detailed instructions on how to best don/doff PPE for re-use are wonderful. #COVID19 #GetMePPE www.nebraskamed.com/sites/default/files/docu...
Have surgical masks or N95s to donate? 😷🏥 Please check out this website and share! http://getusppe.org Needs are more desperate in some areas than others. This will help! #GetMePPE
I don’t know how you New Yorkers feel about him, but when I listen to @NYGovCuomo my anxiety level drops. He is exhibiting true leadership. 🍊 needs to take a lesson. #COVID19 #GetMePPE #WhereAreTheTests
Shame on @UCDavisHealth and every other hospital/facility still doing elective surgery. #GetMePPE californiahealthline.org/news/some-hospitals-cont...
Health care providers are #SoundingTheAlarm: #GetMePPE
Thanks @MSNBC for giving a chance to @PatriceHarrisMD @AmerMedicalAssn to speak! Its crucial for HCWs to have proper PPE in order to be able to help the sickest!

It is criminal what is being done. And beyond criminal what is not being done.

RNs have been experiencing severe shortages in personal protective equipment (PPE) as they work on the frontlines to provide vital care to COVID-19 patients. Tell your member of Congress to do everything possible to #GetMePPE
Our leaders dropped the ball in January. We must demand that the front line heath care heros get proper PPE - before they start dying and there is no one to care for us. Sign the petition (don't donate!) #GetMePPE http://chng.it/4jmQrQKb via @Change
The worst case scenario IS HAPPENING NOW. We need PPE immediately to protect front-line healthcare workers responding to #COVID19 day and night! #GetMePPE
It’s kind of ironic that I put a lot of energy into gathering and sharing “donning & doffing” training info when it seems more and more likely we may just use the same equipment for a week at a time and cross our fingers 😩🤞🏼😷#GetMePPE #GetOurNursesPPE #GetOurRTsPPE
