		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Philly Petchem Workers Isolate 28 Days to Make Virus Equipment&lt;/strong&gt;

From the Hometown Heroes, April 23, 2020 

Marcellus/Utica propane flows from eastern Ohio, northwestern WV  and southwestern Pennsylvania all the way to southeastern PA via the Mariner East pipelines (ME1 and ME2). 

A petrochemical facility operated by Braskem America in Marcus Hook (near Philadelphia) processes some of that propane, turning it into polypropylene–the raw plastic used to make N95 masks, hospital gowns, and sanitary wipes–items in critical demand right now to protect health care workers against the COVID-19 coronavirus. 

This will bring tears to your eyes: Some 40 workers at the Braskem plant voluntarily decided to stay at the plant for 28 days straight–working 12-hour shifts–not leaving once during that time so they could be sure of no COVID contamination while they worked to make polypropylene that in turn would be used to make personal protective equipment for healthcare workers. We salute them one and all!
