UPDATE: Over the last month, some hospitals in New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut, and California have reinstated their mask mandates due to the rise in #COVID19 cases.
Hospitals in several other states including North Carolina and Washington say they are also considering reinstating their mask requirements.
Keep speaking up!

A #Washington hospital gave my mom, a #cancer patient, #COVID. Most people in the ED were unmasked, incl healthcare /staff. We were masked. A nurse removed my mom’s mask to take an oral temp and did not replace it. I returned from talking to family to find her on a gurney in a hallway filled with unmasked people. I replaced her mask.
She was admitted and 2 days later she was COVID+ . She declined very quickly after that.
There’s no legitimate excuse.

@bassjobsen “[…] there is no reasonable argument against the use of respirator masks in healthcare settings. The arguments against their use seem to center on comfort or cost, neither of which have previously been acceptable reasons for a reduction in the standard of care offered to patients or the duty of care owed to staff and patients.”
