More one-on-one interviews with the healthcare workers - finding out how they deal with situations, what situations are too common, why policies are the way they are, and what changes would make sense - finacially, health-wise, wait-time-wise, etc.

This article is more based on the response to disease spread, rather than response to a single emergency event.

1. There is some sort of racism going on towards black people financially.

2. The amount of people in poverty are greater than expected.

3. The poverty rate is increasing faster than expected.

Emergency response is briefly mentioned as something to consider in risk vs security in situations. The safety of emergency responders is important, but making every person take measures to prevent every disease may not be practical. The importance of vaccinating emergency responders was also mentioned.

The government should not edit the EPA's notices and warnings.

There should be far more safety information given to first responders and people living/working in a dangerous area. If they are not actively saving lives, they should not be risking their own lives - like in the rubble cleanup for 9/11.
