Coronavirus diary: Ethically sourcing data for the fight against COVID19
- killjoywashere 7y agoMy initial reaction as a pathologist bringing in COVID19 testing and talking to friends estimating the disaster that is about to land is this: I want this guy to get a lot of help. Now. My second thought: are there others like this? I need people putting data in, but I also need the health system to have collective visibility on the stats and be able to reach out to individuals and say "how are you doing?" "Time to come into the hospital." "Your results are back, you're clear". Patient-Provider-Public Health.
