Twelve more COVID-19 questions answered by Dr. Yvette Lu (video)
A lot of issues have come up since I posted my last video.
In this video, I look at:
- Where are we at now?
- When can we open up again and what should businesses do to prepare?
- Why can’t we just let everyone get the disease?
- What is the role of antibody testing?
- What is convalescent plasma therapy?
- What do I do if I need to see a doctor during this time?
- Is it safe to go to the ER?
- Do I need a mask?
- Do I need to sterilize my groceries?
- Is it safe to get take out or delivery
- Can I get COVID-19 from someone who runs or cycles past me?
- Do I have pandemic fatigue?
This is a long one (19 minutes). Grab some water, have a seat, and enjoy.
