More than 600 of the nation’s physicians sent a letter to President Trump this week calling the coronavirus shutdowns a “mass casualty incident” with “exponentially growing negative health consequences” to millions of non COVID patients.
- This is an order of magnitude error.
- Suicide hotline phone calls have increased 600%.
- Patients fearful of visiting hospitals and doctors’ offices are dying because COVID-phobia is keeping them from seeking care.
- Restrictions are having a huge negative impact on non-COVID patients.
- Zero cases of COVID-19 are prevented by new practices.
- Patients still are fearful about going to hospitals for heart attacks and even for broken bones and deep lacerations.
