深度分析安省医护人员和医疗设备储备与我们所面临的极度危险、自救措施

1. Repurpose factories and skilled workers now to manufacture these items domestically and prioritize distribution to health care workers, who are not only human beings with their own hopes and dreams, but offer irreplaceable skills during a pandemic;
2. Call on individuals to donate sealed itemsthat they have stockpiled to hospitals and clinics, and educate them about scarcity;
3. Research how we can reuse existing stock more safelyin the face of COVID-19 with bleach, UV light, or other techniques, and the possibility of reusable cloth masks or gowns;
4. Liberate any stockpiled PPE from the SARS epidemic. Many of us would be willing to sign waivers and use expired PPE rather than nothing;
5. Buy any possible stock from Chinaand other countries;
6. Expand COVID-19 testing capabilities and treatment facilities;
7. Repurpose distilleries to manufacture hand sanitizer; and
8. Manufacture chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), and anti-viralsthat could potentially treat COVID-19 patients but are currently backordered and unavailable.

In the meantime, it would help our efforts greatly if you legislated every individual to self-isolate.

但是，世界136个国家和地区沦陷，新冠肺炎正处于大爆发时期，各国纷纷关闭国门，世界几乎陷于停滞状态，谁来生产和运输这些医护物资？连严重缺乏物资的美国，都已经行动起来与目前具有生产能力的台湾连手，美国提供测试盒，台湾负责他们提供口罩。而我们的加拿大，还在等着选拔采购，对物资进行严格筛选。根本不懂特殊时期，特殊情况，特殊处理，贻误时机，将来会导致更多的人失去生命，会给社会造成不可估量损失。
