I really hope this video is allowed.  

The information in this video is presented by David Price, a pulmonologiest who works for Weill Cornell in NYC.

The video is incredibly comprehensive and enlightening and encouraging.

Re: Excellent Covid Information

I posted this about a week ago with the name of the video, not the link. Thought it was really good, calming information. Since then I have seen parts of this video on TV a few times.

@Oostende  I also thought it was an extremely valuable video and I changed a lot of what I was "conscious" of doing after he drove the point home to KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF YOUR FACE!!  

 

I normally do a lot of flossing and use a "threader" to  keep my mouth clean so I thought I better start wearing gloves to do those things.

Maybe it's the white walls behind him but the man looks like he hasn't slept in days:/

@Oostende 

 

Thank you very much.  Very informative, calm, and full of just plain common sense.  I'm going to send the link on to friends and family.

 

I do admit that I had to get up and wash my hands a couple of times during the video!🤣

I think the video is very informative about the connection between touching something and then touching your face but towards the end of the video he says that it doesn't affect children from 0 to 14.

 

I also wanted to comment that this doctor says he decides who is put on a ventalator and for how long and I don't think he would even see that many patients that he would probably go by the health care workers recommendations that have extended contact (30 minutes) with the patients  unless there is a borderline case.

 

He also makes a good case for people without the virus (not health care workers) wearing homemade masks or bandanas to keep from touching their faces.
