Interim CDC Recs to Preserve PPE Supplies

As concern over shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE) at U.S. hospitals grows, the CDC has updated interim recommendations for health care professionals (HCPs) managing the COVID-19 outbreak.

The information highlights recommendations for HCPs working in health care facilities, as well as providing strategies to address shortages of key supplies.

Although U.S. organizations are actively pursuing strategies to increase production of PPE, relief will likely take a number of weeks.
