Commentary:

From the pump room looking in…  We are very proactive with known COVID-19 Cases.  Our chief MDA stymied many attempts made by people trying to rationalize their way into the room- absent proper clinical purpose/necessity and/or PPE sufficient enough to stay safe.  The quote “I’m immune” or “I’ve seen this patient all week long” fell on deaf ears- and in all honesty  demonstrates the level of denial this opportunistic vector has thrived on.

“To Thee and to Thee, But Never to Me…”
