We now have to wear gloves (medical variety) and the I95 mask with all patients. If near the stretcher we have to gown up as well. It is impossible to fly with the gown on, so that gets ditched ASAP.
We have new proceedures for venting the cabin when we have a suspected respiratory case. It involves facing forward the pilots popout vents thus positively pressurising the cockpit. This area is separated by a screen from the cabin area which is then negatively pressurised by reversing the window vents. Sounds micky mouse but we hope it works.
I hope this is under control by next winter as I am not sure whether I want a pressurised stream of -25 C + wind chill blasting my willie......
