and 17,000 other people. Several questions and answers stood out to me. Several were, why can't I get tested answer we are so limited we are trying to make sure health care workers are ok. One question was from a nurse who was worried about PPEs. Gretchen gave an example of a federal order. The hospital ordered stuff after giving them the number of employees per shift and asked for a weeks supply. They received enough for one day for one shift. Also got a question regarding a county with no cases. She said no cases= no testing. She really is great she's reassuring but no B.S. she said people can choose, bite the bullet for a month or be like Italy. I'll bite the bullet.
