New York City is expected to enter Phase 3 of reopening on Monday, July 6, but due to concerns about the risk of spreading the virus, indoor dining in NYC will be postponed. As we see states across the country that have opted to reopen indoor dining experience upticks in the infection rate, we want to make sure the same thing doesn't happen in New York. And at this point, we can't rely on citizen compliance or local enforcement alone to manage the risk. The safest option is to postpone indoor dining in NYC.
Today New York reaches a milestone in the battle of COVID-19. For the first time hospitalizations have fallen below 1000 cases. Still a lot of people. Unfortunately, other states are not having such luck. Below is the daily email from Governor Andrew Cuomo on the status of the virus in New York State.
A good friend of ours at Medical Community is Dr. Jessica Israel Senior Vice President of Geriatrics and Palliative Care at RWJ Barnabas Health in New Jersey. She wrote an important piece in the Harvard Business Review published today. It's important to learn how families are coping with not being with their loved one's at bedside for weeks or months at a time, especially if they are in ICU suffering with COVID-19. The attending physicians also have the difficult task of conveying updates to family members over the phone, no hugs, no hand holding. Doctors feel the pain of the patients and families and Dr. Israel recounts her personal experience below.
