Marina Zherebnenko is a firefighter/paramedic with the Alameda County Fire Department and is based in Dublin. She provided the following comment to NBC Bay Area's Rob Mayeda: "We clearly have more PPE we use when we have either a confirmed COVID-19 patient or possible patients with the virus, but we just don’t want to spread it to others if we are secretly exposed but don’t know it... so we protect everyone by wearing masks ourselves. I’m definitely smiling underneath my mask. :) love my job. Beat COVID-19 together.”
