It's the Ralph Nader Radio Hour.

Stand up, stand up.

You've been sitting way too long.

Welcome to the Ralph Nader Radio Hour. My name is Steve Scrovan along with my co-host David Feldman. Hello David.

Hello, good morning. And the man of the hour, Ralph Nader. Hello Ralph. Hey how's everybody in these troubled times?

Yeah, well we're all locked down. We're all locked down but that doesn't prevent us from presenting the show.

And we've got a great show for you.

Of course, what's on everybody's mind

is the coronavirus pandemic.

And this COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare many of the weaknesses of our health care system, including the health and safety of the health care workers themselves, the people we depend on who are at high risk during this crisis and despite the high risk they are not being provided necessary protections.

In fact, a headline in Fortune magazine this week stated that some hospitals are telling health care workers they will be fired for

reporting a lack of protective gear. Protective mask are usually used once and thrown away but

now faced with a very contagious virus hospitals are telling doctors and nurses to clean and

reuse their masks.

Some nurses report self-quarantining after being exposed to COVID-19, but then being told

to return to work before their two-week quarantine is up.

Our first guest will be Jean Ross, who is president of the largest union nurses in the United States, National

Nurses United, and she is here to tell us about her efforts to help nurses stay safe during this pandemic.

And that's just the first half of the show. In the second half, Donald Trump says he'd like to have the country reopen and back to normal by May 1st.

When asked what he would rely on for that final answer, he pointed to his head.

Uh-oh, not a good sign.

In the second half of the show, we welcome back Dr.
