Good article on excess deaths during Covid in ⁦@TheEconomist⁩ - while some may be under-reported #covid19 deaths, suspect some are heart attacks and other serious conditions that chose not to seek care https://t.co/Co7mIh4ob4

1/ This is what has been worrying epidemiologists about #COVID19- if asymptomatic/pre-symptomatic individuals are driving the outbreak, then coming out of lockdown will be exceedingly difficult

here's what it might take

A landlord with 18 apartment buildings in New York City waived April rent for his 200 to 300 tenants because of the coronavirus pandemic. “I told them just to look out for your neighbor and make sure that everyone has food on their table," he said. https://t.co/fUY1AG7Y8t

What is amazing is that you can stop 99% of elective cath, and somehow...everything is fine

I'm not on the front lines (yet), but the pandemic still has affected me and my patients.

Thank you to @NEJM for allowing me to tell my story, and also for quickest turnaround ever: 10 days from submission to publication!

I hope you like it :)

Yesterday, USU medical and advanced practice nursing students took oaths from their homes during a historic virtual graduation. Now that the ceremony is over, it's time to get to work on the front lines of the war against COVID-19! #USUgrad2020

4/ More focus on curve shapes in past few days. @UW tool https://t.co/Q0aJHNZQsM is go-to for predicting peak demand. Figs below are vivid demo of surge vs. flattening curve: NY, brutalized now, may peak Apr 9. CA more “flat”, will have longer course, with estimated peak ~Apr 27

I love you, Dr. Zaius

@nntaleb @WHO Sad but true, you suck @WHO . The mask countries are so much better off. Best masks should go to highest prio of course. Hospitals, nursing homes etc

If only we in the USA had enough PPE. Compare this to universal mask policies in which staff are given one surgical mask per shift.#COVID19
Make no mistake, I don’t have the answer, but wonder about real protection vs facades of protection.

NYC Sounds like Italy a week ago

[chadi nabhan MD, MBA, FACP @chadinabhan]

Situation in NYC with #COVID19 #COVID is unbearable; need every kind of support possible 2 not only save patients but also frontline HCWs. the HEROES battling this everyday R desperate 4 solutions. This is screenshot of a txt I just got posted w permission. #MOREPPEs #MOREVENTS

[Atul Gawande @Atul_Gawande]

.@Unacast Social Distancing Scoreboard uses GPS location data from millions of phones. Gives NY an "A" compared to other states, with NYC at -70% distance travelled post-COVID. Other states scare me, given case counts. We need national shelter in place. https://t.co/an72LFrWtT

[Nicholas A. Christakis @NAChristakis]

Let’s talk about what happens if you get COVID19 and recover. Are you immune to the disease? How long does the immunity last? And what does that mean for your life and for the public health and economy of our society? 1/
