[Paddlewise] Baywatch, no kidding!

I heard from a friend, (I would never waste time watching something like
that  :>), that on CPR, mouth to mouth scenes, the Baywatchers never use a
mouth shield.  In reality, I understand that paramedics would refuse to
perform mouth to mouth on anyone without a shield of some sort, to protect
from contacting blood and saliva borne illnesses.
