The Ruling on Ablution When Unable to Expose Its Parts

Question
I am a nurse working in the high-risk area for my COVID-19 patients, where we do not remove our protective clothing for 6 hours or more. How do I perform ablution if I break my wudu in this situation? And how do I pray?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Prayer is not valid except with ablution, and you should make every effort for that. If you cannot, you should delay the prayer, and God knows best.
