How did US #neurologists experience the initial response to #COVID19? Find out in our survey now published online in @GreenJournal! @AkankshaMD @jillfarmmovedoc @DianaGCMD @LaFaverMD @kimaneurologist
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32439820/ @AANMember
The survey was distributed via social media in March 2020 and received 561 responses from US #neurologists in practice. While 87% were provided #PPE by their institutions, 45% were asked to reuse PPE more than once.
Practices to limit #COVID19 exposure and advice on #selfquarantine varied widely. 43% of #neurologists with known exposure were advised to continue seeing patients unless/until symptomatic, and only 12% were offered immediate testing.

I had a conversation yesterday about an old colleague of mine, white guy, early 40's living in the mid-west. It's a scary reminder of what the LONG term consequences of #coronavirus will be even as the Trump administration rushes to pre-maturely #ReOpenAmerica
40-something married professional white guy had been doing all the right things during #coronavirus . He lives with his wife who, as a cancer survivor, had a compromised immune system and his elderly mother in law. They'd been in #selfquarantine for months just to be safe
Somehow he contracted #coronavirus . Must've been on a rare trip to the grocery or drug store. He didn't go anywhere else. It got bad quickly, breathing difficulties put him on a ventilator. He managed to survive #Covid_19 but in many ways that's where the real challenge starts

Q: What does #ContactTracing look like now, what could it look like in the future and do I need to be worried about privacy?

A: When an individual tests positive for #COVID, staff reach out to identify their close contacts/public spaces they may have visited while contagious.
Based on this information, staff will determine if a contact is at low, medium or high risk of contracting #Covid_19. Staff will contact people who are at medium or high risk to notify them and provide instructions for self-quarantine.

1-Dear @narendramodi ji,

Updating some more inputs, we have gleaned from health policy researchers and first responders to the #CoronaCrisis all around the world.

We urge you to share it with your team to inform the forward strategy on #Coronaindia

@PMOIndia @drharshvardhan
2-As we begin April – almost everyone agrees that it will be a hard month as the #CoronaPandemic spreads across the globe.

The epidemic may calm down by July and August, but #ChinaVirus is likely to be seasonal and could return with a vengeance in the fall.

@AmitShahOffice
3-The next challenge then becomes - How do we crack the current outbreak, develop a plan to return to normal life, and ensure that the #wuhanvirus never poses the same threat again?

#mentalwellbeing in the time of #coronavirus
#thread Here are few things I am doing while in #selfquarantine. You might be doing some or all of this already. Bear with me.
1) Exercise. Do find a corner in your house and ensure you sweat it out for at least an hour.
2) You might be at home for a while, so try and form a routine. Eating at the same time, sleeping at the same time etc. Routine lends a sense of purpose to slower days.

3) Try and do your chores yourself. Do ask your help to refrain from commuting and do ensure they get paid for the days they stay at home.

THREAD: This is what it’s like when a restaurant closes during #coronapocalypse:

Today we picked up our final checks. We are all laid off & are eligible for #Unemployment. Our GM & Chef/Owner set up the dining room like a grocery store so we could walk around & take food home /1
It was incredibly sad. We tried to maintain our social distance, but we’re a family so some people hugged. I tried to be logical with my food choices, but it felt so overwhelming because of feels, plus most was perishable food /2
I made sure to get things I knew I’d eat: a lot of bread, some cheese, pasta, pickles, butter, eggs. I did take some smoked salmon, as well as some chicken & bacon to freeze, but left the Impossible patties, whole fishes, & duck for others /3

Essentially the world learned their lesson two-fold when people inundated the shops hitting hard at toilet paper and cleaning supplies. What we're trying not to do to the hospitals we did to each other anyway with #hoarding #TPShortage2020 #panicshopping.
You are a foolish person if you don't have a child and began hoarding baby wipes. I hope you realize that many of those brands are gentle for babies. Meaning they *are not* going to kill the viruses you're afraid of.

For all my friends wondering about #COVIDー19 and #coronavirus and especially those returning from travel or exchange, I wrote a short thread of some ideas to keep in mind... 1/n

#COVID19Ontario #COVIDCanada #SocialDistance #selfisolate #WorkFromHome
First: if you are returning from ANY TRAVEL, please self-isolate for 14 days. Stay home, use a separate room/washroom, don't touch your face, wash hands, etc. More info below 👇. 2/n

#selfisolate: bit.ly/2TQ5ela
#WashYourHands : bit.ly/2x33FqT
When buying supplies, please avoid hoarding. We must ensure that there is enough supply for healthcare workers and vulnerable populations (e.g. those w/chronic diseases or the elderly) who may have trouble getting what they need. 3/n

THREAD: 1/n. I have a self-quarantined central #Ohio client who was on the #CarnivalValor cruise with this man. I believe that our #Columbus community needs to know of her experience with #Carnival and @OHdeptofhealth.

I will be updating this thread as I find out more.
2/ My client is female, between 45-50 years old. Before I continue, people should know that she has been in public places in central #Ohio for days. She found out from a friend this morning who had seen this morning's @ColumbusHealth #COVID19 announcement. Places she's been:
3/ Sunday March 9th: @Costco at #Polaris; #Costco in #PlainCity; #Aldi in #Delaware.

Wed. March 12th, after work: @TommysPizzaOhio but not yet sure which location.
