NYC started reopening but Governor Cuomo warn people to be safe and to follow the guidelines to flatten the curve

Vulnerability makes the nurses quit amidst pandemic

With the tangibly impending threat of getting infected with the fatal COVID-19 virus not only encompassing themselves but their family members as well in wake of working in genuinely straining and medically incapacitated conditions in the hospitals, the nurses who were earlier being touted as heroes in America have decided to quit with a heavy heart; all thanks to the newly laid protocols from Centers of Disease Control and Prevention.

The necessary guidelines regarding personal protective equipment were willingly decided to be in a forswear mode under the new protocols with CDC sanctioning replacement of N95 masks through commercial-grade masks, surgical masks as well as homemade masks, such as scarves and bandanas, jeopardising the previous acceptable standard of protective care for both patients and medical personnel when the nation paid substantial heed to the withering medical supplies during the early stage of the ongoing pandemic. The nurses who were fighting the disease on the front line with sweat and sincerity were, thus, vulnerable enough to let go of their jobs along with facing black lashes as the new guidelines lacked any exhibit or assurance of significant protection.
