Who has treated a corona patient?

We know scarb wouldn’t unless he gets paid double, but this will be good for the rest of us to hear stories once it inevitably happens.

In all reality, you have experience in this field so would love to know how you plan to handle.

At first I had a plan for treating them. I’m now thinking 2 week break and escalate treatment after break. We have no N95s and a dwindling supply of surgical masks.

Mike Tyson: Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.

I’m hopeful that with all of the attention about lack of PPE and the reports I saw late this week about factories switching to PPE production to meet demand, that in 2-3 weeks we will be in a better place than we are now

For now people need to NOT be wearing more than one mask. I have one surgical mask I keep for days

Scarb right now:

If a patient was confirmed positive I would either 1) not treat them, or 2) treat them as last patient of day with a terminal clean from housekeeping afterwards. If there were multiple patients I would stratify based on risk of relapse with a delay.
