Ohio Nurses Association give 100% support/ their weight for N95 Mask sterilization

Ohio Nurses Association

26 mins ·

Attn. nurses, healthcare workers, first responders, others on the frontline and those who support us on the frontline:

Share this post to show your support of Governor Mike DeWine and to tell the U.S. Food and Drug Administration we need N95 masks and we need them NOW. Approve the sterilization of N95 masks at FULL capacity. Our lives depend on it.


This sterilization process with steaming Hydrogen Peroxide will service multiple states...not just Ohio....but we DO NOT NEED FDA quantity restrictions of processing....FDA said only 10,000 a day to be processed when they can do 160,000 a day. Mike DeWine is apparently pushing the FDA to "wake up".

Apparently, by end of day, FDA with give their response/ decision to change the ruling of yesterday evening...

Surely, we all know tRump is calling the shots but DeWine is delicately dancing around him.

Its infested with Trump political appointees. What are they going to do ? Sue the state ? Send marshals ? Screw it, if you have the technology. just do it. If the fda thinks it's safe for 10,000 a day, they admit that the process works. In which case, there is no reason for limiting the scaling up.
