Texas Medical Center publishes their status on PPE.   Note that Houston is not yet having the crazy surges of the MidWest. (COVID patients are 16% of normal ICU; 10% of "full" ICU)
They have 9 months worth of N95 masks, nearly 5 months worth of surgical face masks, 21 months of eye protection, 4 months of gowns, 1.5 months of gowns (of which they go through more than a million a day!).

Does 9 months worth of N95 masks mean 1 per staff (doctor, nurse, OR techs, etc) per day?  And does surgical face masks mean 1 per doctor/nurse/MA/etc per patient?

Or is it like it was in the late spring (I don't know what it is now), for N95, 8 hours of use and max 5 reuses.
