News You Can Use – Coronavirus

Mar 11, 2020 | Posted by Industry Expert | News, Our Shows |

Protecting Yourself from COVID-19

Host of Dr. Nick: The Incrementalist – #TheIncrementalist

This months episode of “News you can Use” in the traditions of “Ask Me Anything” on HealthcareNOWRadio features news from the month of February 2020 that is dominated by the Coronavirus (aka COVID-19) outbreak.

Episode NOW on Demand

You can read more about the series and the concept of keeping up with innovating in healthcare. Please send me your suggestions on topics you’d like to see covered. You can reach out direct via the contact form on my website, send me a message on LinkedIn or on my Facebook page (DrNickvT), or on Twitter tagging me (@DrNic1) and #TheIncrementalist or you can click this link to generate a ready-made tweet to fill in.

As I did last month I am talking to Craig Joseph, MD (@CraigJoseph) Chief Medical Officer at Avaap. Given the focus and concern around the potential Pandemic for COVID-19 dominating the news cycles, we discuss the context of this virus and how it stacks up against other related viral infections. How does it infect you and what you can do to help limit your exposure?

Like its cousins, SARS and MERS this zoonotic virus appears to have hopped the animal/human boundary leaving humans exposed to infection our bodies do not have much of any experience dealing with. Two of the most telling graphs came from this article on National Geographic: How coronavirus compares to flu, Ebola, and other major outbreaks.

Comparing mortality

Then comparing infection rates this is the SARS tracking of the number of infected cases:

and then comparing the two to date with the number of cases over time:
