I'm doing contingency planning in Japan. Would you guys like an AMA?
I'm a Navy doc and at lunch a couple of weeks ago was told to be on a plane for Japan in the morning. We've been working 24/7 for a while now. I'm ostensibly here as the doctor, for anyone who has a sniffle, hernia, breaks a leg, etc, but very few people come to sick call, and since I have a BS in physics, I have gotten to actually participate in policy and planning decisions, at least at the operational level (no direct line to POTUS, sorry).
IF you want me to, I can ask public affairs about an AMA. Maybe if you post some questions, we can meditate on it a bit (that and it's slow here right now, which is a good thing).
- geuis 16y agoCan you define what an AMA is?
- il 16y agoIt's a reddit thing (ask me anything).
- jamesrom 16y agoBoring question, but for the morbidly curious, what has been the worst medical affliction you have seen while in Japan?
- inoop 16y agoThis is not Reddit.
- lachyg 16y agoOh come on, if it's interesting, and somewhat relates, I don't see how it's not acceptable for this to be on HN.
- petervandijck 16y agoWhat are the things that the people on the ground worry about most/work hardest on, and how does that compare with what's being focused on in the media?
