The letter from the American Nurses Association (ANA) to OSHA urges for the return of pre-pandemic standards and enforcement of PPE. Nurses and healthcare workers are at great risk of infection due to having to reuse and sanitize their PPE for multiple shifts in a row.

This is not what nurses signed up for. We demand appropriate PPE distribution and usage in order to protect ourselves so we can continue to adequately care for our patients.
