Community nurses and carers need The correct PPE during Covid 19

I have seen a lot of posts on social media, that are posted by community nursing teams around the country and they are NOT getting the correct PPE to protect themselves. These people are putting their lives at risk to look after our loved ones!! They need the correct PPE now!
