@GovStitt Such an important initiative. Proud to help take care of these patients with Bob’s help. He celebrates Blake’s life every day by dedicating his life and work to ensuring other families don’t have to experience what he and his did. Thank’s for helping carry on his legacy @GovStitt
BREAKING: Abbott gets approval for point-of-care coronavirus test that can detect a positive case in FIVE MINUTES. Think of a strep throat test, but for coronavirus. In fact, it's the same platform. Company will take 50,000 of them available a day, starting next week.
@tracydawson0291 Hi Tracy! Some can live months without it, others can’t. There are some ways to predict who is who, but often it’s a guessing game. PPE is so short that even if there is a question, we’ve put them off. There’s also the bed shortage to consider as well... tough decisions.
I’m so frightened for my AS patients... the most urgent “elective” procedure in my practice. We’ve all had patients die suddenly just waiting for TAVR scheduling in routine times; who knows the death toll in an era for which there appears no end in sight.
Just my own practice - 3 patients died of heart failure at home, 2 -AS patients waiting for “elective” TAVR, 1 delayed STEMI presentation with shock. These are the casualties that won’t make the statistics.
I am an NHS nurse and not social media savvy - I only have 106 followers & I’m OK with that. I want to show how Covid-19 can spread VERY easily from 1 person to millions. Share this and show those who are not listening how easily things spread. 1 retweet is like touching 1 person
Gas is $0.99 in OKC. We need to socially isolate. It’s beautiful outside. What better way to do it than in your rolling isolation room??? Roll down your windows (or put your top down!!) and go for a long drive. Visit someplace in your state you’ve never been.
Among a sample of patients hospitalized for #COVID19 in Wuhan, 1 in 5 had +Tn. Those with +Tn had markedly worse prognosis than those without, including 50% death rate within 3w https://t.co/qrs9OfCjAj @JAMACardio
Having a COVID test, because of symptoms or exposure, then socializing or hitting the gym (👀@RandPaul) while waiting on results is no different than being exposed to HIV, having a test, & then screwing your brains out until the test comes back. Protect others. Not a 🤞situation.
