Introduction The world is in unchartered territories with respect to the availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for the population that is in a state of fear and panic. Shelves are empty, consumers are overstocking and the World Health Organization (WHO) along with the U.S Surgeon General, are asking the general public to stop using the PPE that is needed for health care workers [ CITATION Lis20 \l 1033 ]. In fact, they are calling for the public to stop buying masks (WHO, 2020). These are the suggestions of the WHO regarding the containment of the corona virus, which is spread by a variety of exposure realities. There are different sources that have a purpose to present a dissimilar set of ideas. However, the reality is that health care workers do not have enough and the reality is that is health care workers are at the highest risk of contacting and spreading this infectious disease [ CITATION Wor20 \l 1033 ]. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are the leading authority in the U.S. regarding establishing protocols to reduce the risk of contracting and spreading this disease through the use of N95 masks [ CITATION Wor20 \l 1033 ]. However, in the Oroville Hospital in California the emergency nurses are reusing disposable surgical masks and decontaminating N95 masks. There are not enough masks for visitors or the public and therefore, this shortage of PPE needs to be addressed immediately. Many nurses are using left using the same N95 masks all day and they are only good for continued use if they are decontaminated at least three times
