Currently you can't use public transport or walk into a supermarket without wearing protective clothing, which protects others from you. Yet care staff are expected to work closely with people in care who wear no such items, risking there lives in the process. It's simply not acceptable that such vital members of our society can be left so exposed without basic protective measures being put into place.
