1/ We need evidence-based, not inventory-based, guidelines. Thanks to @JosephSakran, @JJcolemanMD, @meganranney, @arghavan_salles, @RishiDesaiMD, @ACSInterntl and many more for leading the charge for #PPE in #COVID19. Full @MSNBC clip: youtube.com/channel/UCYVG-…
2/ #COVID19 asymptomatic rate is 50%. Even w/symptoms, test misses 1 in 3 infections. #PPE is not meant for reuse. We need more tests, more PPE. We need broad invoking of the #DefenseProtectionActNow. Govt uses DPA 300,000+ times yearly, btw.
3/ Kushner now leading #COVID19 response: Nat’l #PPE stockpile “not [for] states.” But govt clearly says it is (pic). Trump admin is abandoning its duty to the people. We need leadership. Release stockpile. Broadly invoke #DPANow.

President Bone Spur's abandoned his troops under heavy fire

The Federal Govt's standing in the way of our front lines getting the Protective Equipment they need

His inability to appropriately enact the Defense Production Act & to repair our broken Supply Chain is KILLING people
Think of clothing brands. If the US Govt used #DPA to ensure that every clothing manufacturer making clothes in the US turn their factories around to make Masks & Gowns then we'd see a surge of product available for the States while supplying much needed jobs. But they haven't.
If instead of ASKING Corporate giants to 'promise' to make ventilators in exchange for PR...what if he just TOLD them to just get it done. The US Govt could've said 'You've got 1 month, start producing'. #DPAnow should be happening but Trump doesn't wanna risk pissing off donors.

Heading in for my night shift in the ER here in #Michigan and while @realDonaldTrump is attacking @GovWhitmer on cable news, I’m still using 1 paper mask/shift because Trump won’t use the #DPANow to get me #PPE. Still not enough tests. #NeveraHoax
Appreciate the kindness. Truly none of us treating patients want to be thought of as heroes. We just want our Federal government to recognize that we need a massive national response to this #pandemic. No hospital or state can do it alone.
Right now the part of MI I’m in isn’t getting hit hard. We are bracing for what is coming in a week or so. Please direct legitimate connections for N95 masks and vents to Governor Whitmer’s office. Metro Detroit is in the greatest need.
