Connecticut Senator J. T. Lewis tweets: "Unpopular take: didn't nurses and doctors sign up for this? I have respect for the great job they're doing, but this is exactly what they signed up for." Senator Lewis states that doctors and nurses should be conscripted to fight COVID-19 no matter what, responding to healthcare workers who have expressed concerns at the lack of appropriate safety protections they face.
