The Idiot's Guide to Coronavirus From an Emergency Physician

What Not to Wear in Healthcare 

 

1. Take it easy. The worst part of all this is the fear. More people die from the flu, car accidents, or guns. As of Saturday, March 7th, 19 Americans had died from COVID-19, compared to 1,177 every week from the flu, 746 from car crashes, and 294 from gunshots.
