Reopening thread to our patients 1/8 (relevant also friends, neighbors, family, peers, all) - many years ago, a veteran of many wars told me that the days of ceasefire were very dangerous. This was because precautions were lifted but risk was still there (see next) #COVID19
Reopening thread to our patients 3/8 - The decision to open up now is operational and involves risk. There is nothing magical about June 1 - #COVID19 does not read the calendar & is not involved in local politics. The Pandemic is not over yet. Maintain your precautions
Reopening thread to our patients 4/8 - The pandemic is not close to over yet, #COVID19 numbers are going down in our region, but not close to zero & are going up in some other regions. Risk of infection is real & we do NOT have a vaccine & we do not have an effective antiviral.
Reopening thread to our patients 6/7 - IMPORTANT: Do not postpone medical care because of #COVID19 - situation in healthcare is now much safer, hospitals, emergency rooms & clinics in our region are using best practices and precautions.
Reopening thread to our patients 7/8 - The likelihood of getting infected with #COVID19 now in a hospital is probably lower than most other places you may go to, but the likelihood of damaging health because of delay in seeking care is HIGH at times of crisis.
