Dear Brain Trust:
In our hospital , can we still use this in case theres an outbreak of 2019- nCoV in our isolation room even the gown was expired 3 years ago ? What is the risk? I cant find any hard evidence that theres a risk in using it after expiration date.
I hope someone can shed a light on me regarding this.

Hi Sheilla,
During such an outbreak you have to be practical particularly in developing countries where supplies may be very limited.
Have you contacted the company representatives in Vietnam to check?

Are you able to get a supply of gowns and other PPE that has not expired?
Are you in touch with the HCMC Infection Control Society and the health department in HCMC?

If you are unable to get any gowns that have not expired and you have checked the integrity of the ones you have ( i.e. no holes or tears) then you should use the ones you have until you can get new stock.
