  1. It is good to hear about the proactive work Indiana is doing to prepare for the “what if” scenario, but what is being done to help our healthcare professionals today? There are nurses on the frontline in Indy hospitals today who do not have proper protective equipment. They are reusing surgical masks, which are not effective against COVID-19, because we do not have enough of the proper N95 masks. Can hospitals in other counties share supplies with the hospitals that are harder hit?
