Welcome new followers. I'm an Emergency Room doctor that's treated 1000s of patients w/COVID. I started in New York City then moved West across the U.S. These 15 threads are dedicated to #SoulsLostToCovid & #TheySurvivedCovid [Click on photo] twitter.com/i/events/14216…
COVID-19 is a systemic disease, which means that it can affect any organ in the body. It may directly attack an organ or indirectly damage the organ via damage to the blood vessels.

Getting vaccinated and boosted is one of the most important steps to decrease your risk of having severe COVID.
I don't live in fear, but I respect this virus. I've lost 3 colleagues and a 27 year-old healthy cousin Simon Press to COVID in the early months of the pandemic in NYC. There was no vaccine back then.
My entire family is vaccinated and boosted, including my 14 and 12 year-old children. We also wear masks, because we don't want to get infected with COVID and possibly suffer from #LongCovid or spread the virus to vulnerable people.
Masks mandates are being lifted prematurely nationwide, which is going to result in another surge. My family and I wear KN95s, which have kept us safe throughout the pandemic. There are many brands to choose from

Thank you for the support throughout this pandemic. My family and I are so grateful. I'll continue to share content about the pandemic that keeps you in-the-know. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
