That's horrifying. Can you provide the email text they sent you?

They called me. A friend of mine that works for them contacted me that I should think about taking it down. She was pretty adamant that medical workers should get PPE first. I haven't talked to that person since that encounter.

Looks like this was coming from your friend - as a friend - and not the CDC as an organization?

Sounds like maybe instead of whining, her organization could have made sure that healthcare get the PPE by... manufacturing more.

Not like it's their job or anything.
