Nurse discusses the hospital response to the mask shortage
Nurses/ health care providers are given 1 mask per shift to use for the entire 12 hours (sometimes 1 per pt and other hospitals 1 masks for their entire patient load). After we use the mask we place it in out brown bag to reuse- it is being done all across the country. It’s crazy really for healthcare providers to wrap their heads around- we never re-use ppe because of risk of contaminating yourself. But we have no choice. You do it like this now to make your supplies last. *Annie R. (NP) and Jillian Decker #HIST521 -

"John Prine Hospitalized With COVID-19 Symptoms: ‘His Situation Is Critical,’" from Rolling Stone
The was the first news article that really broke my heart about COVID-19. Up til now, things have been scary, stressful, boring, and lots of other negative emotions, but more than that I've been feeling grateful about all things I don't have to worry about when I know so many people are having a much harder time than me. A text from my dad telling me John Prine was in critical condition was the first thing that actually made me cry. Googled it and this was the first article that came up. #HIST5241 -

The Social Distanced Family
My Husband and dog Ginger are spending time together on our office couch. We have not left our house other than going to the store twice, in the last 13 days. My husband was playing a video game as I continue to do college homework via the internet. Our dog Ginger has been very happy we both have been home. We have been zooming and using Discord to talk to our friends, who we miss dearly. We didn't visit our uncle or my father on their birthdays. We decided to take Governer Dewine's plea for social distancing very seriously. The weather in Ohio is still cold, we look forward to when we can enjoy some sunshine. -

North Carolina Quarantine
In North Carolina, I am located 10 miles away from Raleigh. Wake County has closed all non-essential businesses, until April 17th. This is a huge loss in Raleigh's economy, let alone the world's. Raleigh is the hub for business personnel, dine-in cuisine, and leisure fun. 71/100 counties in North Carolina have at least one case of COVID-19. My county, Wake County, has over 134 reported cases. This is extremely scary, as we are such a small county, and people in fast food are still expected to work since they are considered "essential". It is a scary time for all of us, and especially those who are autoimmune compromised. Our Governor, Roy Cooper, has mandated a stay at home order for all who live in North Carolina. However, there is a lot of issues of people still going to the beaches on the coast and not social distancing. North Carolina police have begun to find people who are seen in groups larger than 5. It is to ensure that the virus does not spread to others, and keep the stay in home order a necessity. There is a bar graph to indicate the reported cases in North Carolina attached, and it was posted by David Raynor Source: NC DHHS and county health departments.
