Facebook recently announced that they’d be donating large numbers of protective masks to healthcare worker from stockpiles created after the recent wildfires, according to an article on the CNBC website.
In 2019, California’s Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board adopted a regulation requiring employers to provide respiratory equipment, including N95 masks, for workers when the Air Quality Index reaches unhealthy levels.
Hospitals have expressed concerns that their frontline workers are being jeopardized because they don’t have the proper protective equipment.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has urged the federal government needs to nationalize the purchase of needed medical supplies and said the shortage of masks and other lifesaving equipment such as respirators is leading to price gouging.
