Governor Laura Kelly says Kansas could run out of personal protective equipment for medical personnel and others dealing directly with the coronavirus pandemic by the middle of next week.
Kelly issued her warning Friday as the state saw its largest spike in COVID-19-related deaths.
Kelly says Kansas received a shipment of personal protective equipment such as masks and gloves late Thursday night but still has six requests for more equipment yet to be filled by the federal government. She said the current supply will last until Tuesday.
Coronavirus-related deaths jumped by five Friday to 18.
