Ron DeSantis, a Republican, announced Florida’s capacity to administer Covid-19 tests for up to 625,000 Floridians, a lack of supplies, including swabs, means only an estimated 30,000 people have been tested to date, per data from the state’s Department of Public Health. ‘We’re not doing enough testing in our state,’ Deutch told CNN’s New Day Thursday. ‘We have no idea how many cases there really are because we’re testing so few people.’” [CNN, 3/28/20]

  • An Attending At Virginia’s Inova Loudoun Hospital Explained That N95 Mask Shortages Had Led Doctors To Keep One Mask Per Shift, Saying “After We’re Done Seeing The Patient, We Put It In A Paper Bag With Our Name On It… It’s Frightening.” “Furkan Shinaishin, an attending emergency-medicine physician at Inova Loudoun Hospital, is more desperate. ‘Because of our shortage of masks, we keep one N95 mask per shift. After we’re done seeing the patient, we put it in a paper bag with our name on it. When it’s time to see the next patient, we put the same mask back on. It’s frightening.’ She said because there’s no way to sterilize the mask, she and her colleagues were told to put a surgical mask on top of the N95 mask.” [The Atlantic, 3/20/20]
