This measure is contrary to the recommendations made by numerous public health experts to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
Jennings faced a quick response to his post: “I am a nurse and all healthcare workers are reusing PPE and we do not have regular access to testing. We risk ourselves every day to care for patients. What everyone else can do is social distance and wear masks in public. “
Another user wrote, “This is very selfish and ignorant.”
“For those who listen to where I come from, I appreciate your openness and scholarship. For those who signed the agreement, I appreciate you for expressing your views.

CNN’s Wine Sterling, Holly Yan and Sandy Lamott contributed to the report.
