NURSES PROTEST AT WHITE HOUSE

NURSES PROTEST AT WHITE HOUSE: Nurses are outside the White House, reading the names of colleagues who have died from COVID-19 due to insufficient protective equipment. They're also placing down a symbolic pair of shoes for each nurse who was lost. The nurses protesting are with @NationalNurses, America's largest nurses union. They say at least 88 registered nurses have lost their lives to COVID-19 as of May 5. CDC data indicate that well over 10,000 U.S. health workers have contracted COVID-19 since February. Pres. Trump has resisted calls to take more aggressive action to ensure health workers have the supplies they need.
