Almost every school in America is closed. Every one has a nurses office/infirmarary stocked with medical supplies.

Shouldn't these be emptied and the supplies sent to hospitals?

Are you for real? When's the last time you were in a school? A school nurse can't administer aspirin for chrissakes. They have cold packs, band-aids and 911 on speed dial.

@hlpflwthat My wife is an elementary school principal. Her school is closed. Behind those locked door are hundreds of masks, rubber gloves and more than a few gowns, exactly the sort of PPE medics need.

Sorry but I do know what Im talking about.

@redredred More than a few gowns ... like prom gowns? Do they do a lot of surgery at the 'infirmarary' of this elementary school?

What this nation needs is more husbands of elementary principals who can spell. If your school has hundreds of N95 masks on hand, the school board should be auditing their purchases.

@hlpflwthat 950 gloves as of this morning, 525 N95 masks and 8 disposable plastic gowns. I know you may not have read or watched any news since 1981 but blood borne pathogens have been a concern for about forty years now and kids get injured on playgrounds all the time. School nurses gearvup whenever a bloody nose or even skinned knee shows.

Im more comfortable with the occasional spelling error on my part that the obvious cognitive disorder youre suffering from.

@redredred If she's a principal at that school, she should be able to get those supplies sent to the hospital.

@JeanAnna Its locked and the city has taken control of all the schools.

@redredred Surely in an emergency like we have now, the state officials could open up the school and get those supplies.

@JeanAnna Have you never dealt with a Democrat dominated government on any level? Reason and logic are in very short supply.
JeanAnna · F
@redredred Yes I have, but right now you are dealing with a Republican president who doesn't have a clue as to help others.
redredred · M
@JeanAnna Hes doing a great job. Its the democrats that run this town that wont move on these supplies.
JeanAnna · F
@redredred You're wrong. The democrats can't issue orders to move supplies, I wish they could, but Trump can, but he won't. Even the Republicans are worried that he is keeping the supplies locked down and letting people die. He will pay for this come election time.
