WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ON TWITTER, FACEBOOK, AND OUR BLOG

"Every patient should be given access to their support system. No one should be denied their loved ones when they are struggling to take a breath that may be their last." "There are some hospitals that are still experiencing shortages of PPE. [Allowing COVID-19 patients to have visitors] may make the difference in the hospital staff having enough PPE to safely care for patients." "I had to reuse the same N95 for months. . . . I feel like we were thrown under the bus . . . and no one stood up for us or supported us."
