Did you get any guidance for spouses? Wife working Covid Unit and she said they haven't given her anything. Did find a stack of N95s in my file cabinet at work, so I got that going for me.

N95 are hard to come by. Only using if pt comes off the vent and we are exposed to tones of droplets

That’s the policy in every hospital btw. All pts at umc are made a DNR when sent to the icu

Why not?

After witnessing the brutality of it, Im going with the fact that the effort would spray COVID all over the space, and responders.

Too risky for everyone alive at that point, and for the next extremely ill person to occupy that space
