An ER nurse told us she was exposed to the coronavirus and has symptoms but still can't get tested, and it highlights both America's crippling inequality and its broken healthcare system

like masks and gowns, the nurses who spend more time on patient bedsides than other healthcare workers worry they are more susceptible to the disease, and won't even be able to get the proper testing.

The nurse said she couldn't give the hospital an answer as to whether she had worn the right equipment, because the rules on what masks to wear — either airborne particle-resistant N95 mask, surgical masks, or surgical masks with goggles — had changed every day.

"[My boss] didn't threaten my job, but I think he was more worried about how to handle the situation moving forward because we've been asking for a protocol for weeks and [we're] not being given anything in preparation," the NP told Business Insider.
