Paul Vallas Asks Questions

From a Paul Vallas social media post:

• LET'S BE STRAIGHT ABOUT OUR SUPPORT FIRST RESPONDERS
  
  Complaints from the family of a 911 operator who died of complications from the Coronavirus that he and his co-workers weren’t provided adequate protective gear, among the continuing stream of concerns expressed on social media about lack of city preparedness and support for its “First Responders”, may be legitimate. This raises a number of direct questions the city needs to answer.
  
  1.) Police Officers are saying that they are not getting “replacements” for their used PPE Kits. Each Kit has one mask and one pair of gloves, neither of which are reusable.
  
  2.) Are Police and other city employees still being required to swipe in and out despite the fact that it is the complete opposite of social distancing and exposes Officers to devices that could have been touched by someone with the virus?
  
  3.) Are First Responders waiting as long as a week for their coronavirus test result and if so are they still requiring them to be on duty while they await the results?
  
  4.) Is or is there not a 14 day quarantine directive for First Responders who have been in contact with an infected colleague or citizen?
  
  5.) Why are cleaning services only cleaning work stations of an effective member and not the common areas, swiping machines and door handlers? In the Area 1 Detective Division, were a detective tested positive, there was no cleanup of common space, door handles, etc. A sign was simply posted at the Detectives work space telling people not to use it.
  
  6.) Are there 8,000 face shields donated by Ford Motor Company and Troy Design and Manufacturing, consignments of hand sanitizers donated by Malort and 125 infrared thermometers for testing for the virus that have not been distributed and if so why?
  
  It also needs to be stated publicly and unequivocally by the city of Chicago that active duty “First Responders” who die from Coronavirus will be classified as a “Death in the Line of Duty” with the Officers family receiving full death benefits. Prior to the Officers death there were rumors that the City was not going to go that route. In a city that annually pays many tens of millions in settle EMT’s and millions more to,private law firms to negotiate the settlements it would be the height of disrespect to discern were active duty first responders contracted the virus.

This might be the hard liquor talking, but he seems like he'd give us a fair shake.
