Michigan governor: "We are running dangerously low on PPE"
Pool
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer told reporters that the state is running dangerously low on personal protective equipment, also called PPE.
Gov. Whitmer said that there are less than three days left until face shields run out and less than 6 days until surgical gowns run out at all three of those health systems. She added that these data points do not include private donations that are going straight to hospitals.
“We are doing everything that we can at the state level to secure more personal protection equipment. Today we will begin distributing 1.2 million surgical masks that the state has procured on the open market,” Whitmer said.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has sent 400 ventilators, 1.1 million surgical masks, 232,000 face shields and 2 million gloves. “FEMA will be shipping 1 million more N95 masks to Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties this week,” the governor said.
The state is working with the Army Corps of Engineers and the Michigan National Guard to get the TCF Convention Center in Detroit up and running to see patients by Friday.
The governor added that Ford and the United Autoworkers have donated thousands of face shields to Michigan hospitals and the state issued the purchase of 1 million face shields from Ford to be delivered over the next 3 weeks.
“We’re making some progress, and that is a good thing, but we need more PPE to continue fighting this virus,” Whitmer said.

The chronic shortage of disposable N95 respirator masks is a serious concern for front line health care workers involved in care of COVID-19 patients. A recent study published in JAMA determined that a reusable alternative to the N95 mask is just as effective and providers can securely fit the masks just as quickly.
Researchers found that time to achieve a secure fit with reusable elastomeric half-mask respirators (EHMRs) was not significantly different than with single use N95 respirators.
Colleen Kraft, MD, associate chief medical officer at Emory University Hospital, is the second author of the study, which was published in JAMA on March 25.
“The fact that health care providers can be rapidly fit tested and trained to use the reusable EHMR, will help address the current shortage of N95 respirators,” says Kraft.
Kraft is also an associate professor of medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases, associate professor in the Department of Pathology and the associate medical director for Emory’s Serious Communicable Diseases Program. Erik Brownsword, MPP, and Morgan Lane, MPH, in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Emory University School of Medicine were co-authors.
Kraft also worked with colleagues at the University of Texas on this project, which is funded by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Read the full article in JAMA.

Authorities in New York City may soon start temporarily burying bodies in parks as the city grapples with overrun morgues because of the coroanvirus crisis, city councilman Mark Levine said.

Levine also noted that the city is likely undercounting its coronavirus death toll because as many people are dying at home without receiving a test.
It is an interesting thread. Worth clicking through to see the rest of what he has to say. Truly apocalyptic scenes seem to be unfolding in New York City.

New York City plans to temporarily bury coronavirus victims in a park
10:27 a.m.
New York City is looking more and more apocalyptic every day.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to claim lives in the U.S's coronavirus epicenter, every aspect of city's resources for managing the dead have been overloaded. So to deal with the influx of dead bodies that have overtaken morgues, funeral homes, and cemeteries, the city will soon begin using a park for temporary burials, New York City Councilmember Mark Levine announced Monday.
View attachment 190834
Levine, the chair of the council's health committee, explained in a Monday tweet thread how the city's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner is "now dealing with the equivalent of an ongoing 9/11." Deaths in hospitals are dramatically rising, but so are the numbers of deaths in homes; 20–25 people are usually reported dead in their homes every day in New York City, but that's risen to 200–215. Overall daily death counts have also doubled.

So to avoid "scenes like those in Italy" where bodies have been found on the streets, New York City will likely soon use a park for "temporary interment" where "trenches will be dug for 10 caskets in a line," Levine wrote.
New York City's death toll from coronavirus was nearing 2,500 as of Sunday morning, though Levine noted that a lack of testing means that number is surely an undercount. Kathryn Krawczyk

I thought Motrin (ibuprofen) was not to be given because the virus thrived on it and made it worse!Farmington Hills toddler survives COVID-19 after 106 fever, parents say
View attachment 190818
Farmington Hills — They didn't believe the thermometer's bright red screen: 106.5 degrees.
Amanda May and Ryan Schreiber were staring at their precious blonde-hair, blue-eyed 1-year-old boy in shock.
Then they began to panic.
"Give me your forehead," Amanda May demanded of Ryan. "I promise you we checked it 10 times using two different thermometers and checking it on ourselves, too."
Ryan was 98 degrees. She was 97. But Luke ... "Luke was 106.5!" Amanda May said.
The Farmington Hills couple recounted the ordeal from last month to The Detroit News as a cautionary tale about the novel coronavirus.
They say they'll never forget it. The family had just been watching "Frozen" — again — in their living room on an ordinary Tuesday. Then Luke's fever spiked, and they were frantically headed to the emergency room.
"He looked like he was passing out, I’m doing songs and acting crazy in the car and he just wasn’t responsive," said Amanda May, 31.
"It was one of the scariest moments of my life."
The couple had been checking their two sons' temperatures daily since the family began quarantining on March 13 in response to the coronavirus outbreak. On this particular Tuesday, both 22-month-old Luke and his 4-month-old brother, Alistair, had slight fevers.
"Luke woke up crying, which he never usually does, and he had a fever close to 103, a little more than Alistair's," she said.
"... I immediately thought 'oh no,' but we didn't panic. We got them up, gave them Motrin and the fevers reduced quickly, so we hoped it was nothing to worry about.
Hours later, Ryan, 35, was sitting on the couch with Alistair while Luke was shooting hoops and goofing around. When it was time for the next dose of medicine, they noticed Luke's blonde hair covered in sweat.
"Even after his nap, he was still playing but refused eating and drinking," Amanda May said. "In about an hour’s time, this fever spiked like I had never seen."
They stripped Luke down, got him in a cold bathtub and put cold compresses on his head. He was shaking and shivering.
"Luke started screaming because it was cold, and we were obviously really scared because it all happened really quickly," Ryan said. "In that quick moment of panic, you know you have to jump in action."
Amanda May rushed Luke to the car for the 11-mile ride to the hospital, while Ryan stayed behind to care for young Alistair.
"As soon as they got to the hospital, I was a little stunned because I thought we had been doing all the right things all along," said Ryan of protecting themselves from the virus.
Amanda May said she couldn't head into the emergency room at Beaumont's Royal Oak hospital like normal. After parking, she and her child waited in line outside. She urged others seeking care that she had an emergency and flagged down medics who rushed her inside holding Luke. They quickly placed ice packs under his armpits and took him for a chest X-ray.
"The longer it went — she kept updating me that (doctors) really think it is coronavirus — I started to get more concerned, and you feel a sense of helplessness because there's only so much you can do as a parent when you see your kids like that," Ryan said.
With an IV administering five liters of fluid, two rounds of medicine and suppositories, Luke's temperature dropped to 104.5 nearly six hours later. By morning, his fever had dropped to 101. Luke showed no signs of pneumonia and his oxygen levels were perfect, his parents said.
Within 24 hours, Luke's COVID-19 test result returned. Positive.
Still, after Luke's sweating decreased and his fever remained steady at 101, doctors offered the family the option of going home due to the hospital "being a Petri dish" with a handful of cases of influenza and H1N1 that would compromise Luke's already-vulnerable immune system, they said.
Luke tested negative for all other infections and, as of Sunday, Luke's fever is near normal with the help of Tylenol and Motrin. Amanda May has had a fever and has been resting through the weekend, Ryan said.
Ryan and Amanda May don't dwell on the thought of what would have happened if they hadn't acted as quickly as they did. They say they're just happy to be home.
"Doctors told us that with that temperature, any longer before bringing him into the hospital he's at a much higher risk for seizure and brain damage," Ryan said. "There's a lot of people who are, unfortunately, losing loved ones, and as long as we can keep Luke healthy, we're lucky."
Dr. Rudolph Valentini, Chief Medical Officer at Children’s Hospital of Michigan, told The Detroit News not many children have been hospitalized due to the virus.
"The children we're seeing are mildly symptomatic with low-grade and moderate fevers or a slight cough and most of the time they don't go to the hospital," Valentini said. "As long as they're well hydrated and not vomiting, parents are opting-in to staying at home.
"It's much worse for adults who are seeking care. We anticipate about 20% of adults are going to be pretty affected and we're not really seeing that spread of activity in pediatric," he added.
They hospital is recommending a face covering for children under 2-years-old because they can't control their sneezes and coughs in public. Most children tend to do well at home, but co-infections can be worrisome, he said.
"About 10-20% of patients have more than one infections and it will be additive to their sickness," Valentini said.
"Everyone's immune system can be a little bit different. Children are underdeveloped and those that catch a mild form of COVID-19 are mostly otherwise healthy. We just don't want them mingling with their grandparents, who are more at risk."
The family's plan is to quarantine, like they were, until all symptoms disappear and likely, much longer to be safe.
But they still wonder where Luke contracted the virus. The family began quarantining and working from home on March 13, more than 10 days before Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's March 24 "Stay Home. Stay Safe. Save Lives" order.
Ryan says they keep things clean since Amanda May is a cancer survivor and still has a compromised immune system.
"It's important to stay vigilant," he said. "We thought we were doing everything that we could to prevent it. We were washing surfaces, we were cleaning hands, leaving mail and packages in the garage, and Luke still got it."
Amanda May says although a positive test might be some parent's worst fear right now, it's best not to panic but rather be prepared.
"It's tough not to worry, but I suggest parents check their children's temperatures every day, if not every hour if possible. That spike came out of nowhere, and you don't want to miss it."

#Israel’s PM Netanyahu says the country will be on complete lockdown from Wednesday starting at 4pm until Friday morning.
This and the resultant "photo op" will be used by the Left to terrorize people into their agendaNew York City plans to temporarily bury coronavirus victims in a park

New York City is looking more and more apocalyptic every day.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to claim lives in the U.S's coronavirus epicenter, every aspect of city's resources for managing the dead have been overloaded. So to deal with the influx of dead bodies that have overtaken morgues, funeral homes, and cemeteries, the city will soon begin using a park for temporary burials, New York City Councilmember Mark Levine announced Monday.

Levine, the chair of the council's health committee, explained in a Monday tweet thread how the city's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner is "now dealing with the equivalent of an ongoing 9/11." Deaths in hospitals are dramatically rising, but so are the numbers of deaths in homes; 20–25 people are usually reported dead in their homes every day in New York City, but that's risen to 200–215. Overall daily death counts have also doubled.

So to avoid "scenes like those in Italy" where bodies have been found on the streets, New York City will likely soon use a park for "temporary interment" where "trenches will be dug for 10 caskets in a line," Levine wrote.
New York City's death toll from coronavirus was nearing 2,500 as of Sunday morning, though Levine noted that a lack of testing means that number is surely an undercount. Kathryn Krawczyk
20 years ago when I worked in several nuclear power stations they would not let you wear a dust mask. If you though you needed a dust mask for a job you had to go to a full face respirator. Dust mask just don't give you the level of protection you need.Yes it makes sense of course.
I've been away from the commercial construction for decades.
But way back when fear was ramping up about silica and other construction dusts from drilling concrete.
The issue back than was OSHA required training that was required to be given to an employee if you had to give them a respirator.
Dust masks or higher end versions of them required no training.
Stuff has probably changed but that was the gist of it.
Hospitals aren't going to spend money on training if they never have the respirators to give to staff.
Wait and see after this mess how many hospital employees keep there own stock of stuff. Either buying their own or slowly building a stash of miss appropriated hospital products.
You would not catch me in a hospital setting without the whole hood and par.
Card readers, ATM, fuel pump keypads, doorbell, etc.?
