Health and emergency workers on the front lines of the fight against the pandemic told Democrat Joe Biden at a virtual roundtable on Wednesday that they face critical shortages of personal protective equipment and are anxious about what they say is inadequate federal coordination.

Biden, who took part in the Nov. 18 discussion from The Queen theater in Wilmington, Delaware, heard from a firefighter, nurses, and a caregiver, who detailed the challenges facing front-line staff as the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus continues to surge.
