VIRUS HITTING CLOSE TO HOME

So, I work for a huge corporation which is a nationwide wholesale vehicle auction. There are a few of our auctions in California, Illinois and New York that are closed for obvious reasons. I work in Pennsylvania. I inspect the cars and trucks that both dealers and Chrysler drop off for sale. A lot come from out of state.
My point is , the county that I work in was issued a stay a home order. However, our GM got on the horn to lawyers and managed to somehow state that we are essential and me and fellow employees are essential. We are told that we may take off.. but use our vacation. Wtf! We have no masks, no gloves issued for over a week til yesterday. We're seriously concerned of contracting something from the cars.. but our hands are tied.. We feel the need to voice our concerns and frustrations but dont want to lose our job
