家园 波士顿大医院的护士前天在社区群里征集N95口罩了

这个“大医院”应该就是布里格姆妇女医院(Brigham and Women's Hospital),俗称哈佛二院。我们这边的社区医院也在征集N95口罩。号称医疗资源第一的波士顿都这德性了,别的地方就可想而知了。前天麻省护士协会给省长发公开信,介绍了麻省医院目前面临的各种问题:

•Health care facilities still do not have enough Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for frontline health care staff and are recommending that nurses reuse PPE without taking the proper safety requirements.

•Tests are still not widely available.

•Potentially infected individuals are presenting at hospitals that are still not equipped to triage, test, and properly treat them in an appropriate setting.

•Nurses continue to be concerned about capacity to treat the potential influx of individuals with COVID-19. After years of closures of beds, units and hospitals,and reductions in frontline health care staff, hospitals lack the space and staff to deal with an unprecedented outbreak of this highly contagious virus. This puts patients, health care workers, and the general public at risk.

·卫生保健机构仍然没有足够的个人防护装备(PPE)供前线卫生保健人员使用,并建议护士在没有采取适当安全要求的情况下重复使用PPE。

·检测仍未得到广泛使用。

·潜在感染者出现在仍不具备在适当环境下对他们进行分类、检测和适当治疗的医院。

·护士们继续关注治疗潜在的COVID-19患者涌入的能力。经过多年来病床、病房和医院的关闭,以及前线医护人员的减少,医院缺乏空间和人员来应对这种高度传染性的病毒史无前例的爆发。这将患者、卫生保健工作者和普通公众置于危险之中。)
