00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Official Jets Podcast powered

2
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: by Amazon Web Services. On today's episode, actually a non

3
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: football related episode, but a very important one, Sam Donald

4
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: sat down with Dr Jan Shore's Miller, who's the senior

5
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:23,119
Speaker 1: vice president, chief Medical and Academic Officer for Atlantic Health System,

6
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: and they basically talked about COVID nineteen, the precautions, basically

7
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: the backstory of it, how contagious it is. They really

8
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: went in depth here and as the summer and the

9
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: warmer weather starts to creep in, one thing that they

10
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: focused on was how imperative social distancing will remain even

11
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: though the weather will start to get warmer and warmer degrees.

12
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: This is a super important conversation for us to have

13
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: across all platforms. So I think today we'll take a

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: break from football a little bit because more than a

15
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: million people in the United States have or have had

16
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: the virus, and we don't even know how many more

17
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: people have the virus right now because of the testing

18
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: as the United States continues to try to ramp up

19
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: their efforts in that area. And more than fifty eight

20
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: thousand people in this country alone greens have died because

21
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: of COVID nineteen this is an anatomy unlike any other

22
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: that we've ever seen. This is a very unique, unprecedented time.

23
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: I think this is the proper platform Sam and Dr

24
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: schwarz Miller get into this. So many great topics raised today.

25
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: Another thing is I just want to mention before we

26
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: get into the interview. Greens, myself and you were taping

27
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: a video yesterday and the Blue Angels and the US

28
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: Air Force Tea Birds launched a nationwide display of air

29
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: ward shoutouts and at one point we had to pause

30
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: because the noise was sold out of the planes going

31
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: by your place in Hoboken. Because right now I think

32
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: everybody in the United States is coming together and saluting

33
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: our first responders, and Dr schwarz Miller is on the

34
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 1: front lines of all this right now, and without further ado,

35
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: let's dive into it. Quarterback, Sam Donald and Dr Jan

36
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 1: schwar's Miller again, thank you for everything that you've done.

37
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: You and like you've said, thousands of others, millions of

38
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: others are doing the best that you can to affect

39
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: this country and really the world for the better. So

40
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: I can't thank you guys enough for that. And really

41
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: this is more of just for everyone to better understand

42
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: kind of what's going on. I feel like there's a

43
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: lot of questions that people have about this thing and

44
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: kind of just what it is. I mean, for me,

45
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: I'm hearing so many different things on the news of

46
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: how serious it is, and I just want to get

47
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: your professional opinion on really what COVID nineteen is and

48
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: what we're dealing with here. Sure, Sam, I mean, this

49
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: is such a tricky virus. Um It's a virus that

50
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: we've known about for years and years and usually in

51
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: the United States it causes the common cold because there

52
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: are different strains of this virus the way they're different

53
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: strains of lots of viruses. But I don't know you

54
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: were too young to remember stars, but it was um

55
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: and a pandemic and a much smaller scale um in

56
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: in I think it was around two thousand and eight,

57
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: and that was the same virus but a different strain.

58
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: So what this is a really tricky virus. It easily

59
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: easily passes from person to person, even more easily than influenza,

60
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: and we think about fluids being very contagious, And what's

61
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: so tricky about it and and worrisome is you've probably

62
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,839
Speaker 1: heard there are people who have no symptoms at all, um,

63
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: feel absolutely fine, have no idea that they're infected, and

64
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: they can transmit this virus to other people during that time.

65
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: And then there are people who are incredibly sick. UM.

66
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: And in the beginning, as we learned about it out

67
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: of China, we predominantly thought, well, this affects people's lungs,

68
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: but we're finding now it affects their kidneys, that affects

69
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: their heart, affects their nervous system UM. And so depending

70
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: on how ill you've become from it, UM, it can

71
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: have devastating consequences, particularly in older people UM, and particularly

72
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: people who have underlying medical conditions. But we're shocked to

73
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: see absolutely young, healthy people who get into trouble. So

74
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: UM it's it's chameleon like we we you know, we

75
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: it hides from us and those people who have no

76
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: symptoms and can pass it. And then we have, you know,

77
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: people who are so ill and we're working really hard

78
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: to save their lives. Right, And kind of going off

79
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: of that, like, what do you think just for someone

80
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: who is feeling maybe they have allergies or maybe it

81
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: might feel like a cold, Like should they go in

82
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: and get tested. How should they handle that? Yeah, right now,

83
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,239
Speaker 1: I'm until we can do more testing, although our testing

84
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: capacity has improved and increased tremendously. People with mild symptoms

85
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: probably should stay away from other people so that they

86
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: don't spread the illness. But in general, unless you have

87
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: more serious symptoms, you probably shouldn't be seeking medical care.

88
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: But if you've got trouble breathing or persistent chest pain

89
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: or confusion, um, you know, those are reasons that you

90
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,239
Speaker 1: should definitely seek medical care, high fevers, etcetera. But people

91
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: who have allergic type symptoms, um, it's hard to know

92
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: whether they are allergies, um, particularly if you usually have

93
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: allergies at certain certain seasons, versus whether or not they

94
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: have something more serious. So I think doing what you

95
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: should do when you're ill, which is basically not being

96
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 1: around other people because you don't want to pass infections

97
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 1: to others. I feel like I'm sometimes confused on what

98
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: I should be doing and what the right thing to

99
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: do is because, um, you know, for a lot of us,

100
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: especially over a super long period of time, staying at

101
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: home just by yourself isn't It's hard to do? Right.

102
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: I want to I want to see the puppy that

103
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: we just got last year. You know, so what should

104
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: we be doing on a daily basis to kind of

105
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 1: keep this thing and check and make sure that it

106
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: doesn't spread, And just on a daily basis, I guess

107
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: what can we be doing to limit how this thing spreads? Yep, Sam,

108
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: that's a great question. It's an incredibly important question. Which

109
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: is and it's the things that we've all heard again

110
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: and again, but they're so key. So the issue of

111
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: social distancing really is an important issue. So that's staying

112
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: at least six ft away from other people. Um. And obviously,

113
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: if you live with your family and everybody has been

114
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: well and you've been together, you're not going to stay

115
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: within six ft of them, But um, when you're out

116
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 1: and you're doing some grocery shopping, if you have to

117
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: go out or you're around people, UM, it is important

118
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: to stay at least six feet And that's because of

119
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: the way the virus is past you're mustless much less

120
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: likely to be exposed if you social distance. The other

121
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: thing is hand hikiing. They are all those basic things

122
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: that we all learned growing up, but it's so important

123
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: to wash your hands regularly, particularly if you've been out

124
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 1: in public, or you've been touching something that UM is

125
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: you're not normally around UM. This virus does live on

126
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: certain surfaces for up to a certain a couple of days.

127
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: Although most commonly it's great person to person so and

128
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: washing hands. The CDC has some great films to remind

129
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: people of how to do that, but it's at least

130
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: twenty seconds and you really have to UM, you know,

131
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: wash them well and UM drive them with a paper towel,

132
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: not a towel that somebody else has just used. UM. Important.

133
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: Also if you don't have ability to wash your hands,

134
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: if you have the alcohol based hand rubs, you should

135
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: do that. You've also seen information recently because the CDC

136
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: announced it recently that wearing a face mask UM or

137
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: something to protect your eyes, your nose, in your mouth

138
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: is really important because the virus comes can come from

139
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: your nose or mouth if you're blowing your nose, or

140
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: you're coughing or sneezing UM. If you happen to be infected,

141
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: or if you're around other people, that droplet can actually

142
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: you won't see it, it's invisible, but it can reach

143
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: your nose or your mouth. Or if you've touched the

144
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: surface and you rub your eye, it can cause a problem.

145
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: So it's really important to do those basic things. The

146
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: social distancing, which is what you were talking about, how

147
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: hard it is for people to be on their own,

148
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: be home alone. I you know, I've been away from

149
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: my family a lot during the week. Um, and it's

150
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: it's isolating, it's it's difficult. Um. And then just making

151
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: sure you're washing your hands regularly. And the masks are important. Um.

152
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: So right now, I'm not in a hospital, so we're

153
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: wearying the cloth face masks when I'm in an office building.

154
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: But in a hospital, when I'm over there, then we

155
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: wear obviously greater protection because there's a greater potential exposure. Right.

156
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: And you mentioned the eyes for a second. The eyes

157
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 1: don't carry anything or nothing can spread through them or

158
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: how do you know they could? And so we worry

159
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: most about the nose in the mouth. But again, if

160
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: you touch a surface and then you rub your eyes,

161
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: there is a risk. So it's really important to try

162
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 1: to you know, not rub your eyes or wash your

163
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 1: hands right before you do so, um, And that would

164
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: give you protection. So any of the three, you know,

165
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: your eyes, nose are out there all potential and then

166
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: just curious because we're all very aware of how serious

167
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: this is, and we're all super thankful for people like

168
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: yourself and all the workers in hospitals. So I guess

169
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: my question would be, how are how are you guys

170
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: all taking care of yourselves and you know, in the hospital.

171
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: What are you guys doing to protect yourselves and each

172
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: other from not getting infected? Sure? Well, I think the

173
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: first and foremost is recognizing UM when somebody has symptoms

174
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: that are consistent with COVID. So when somebody comes to

175
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: a hospital, we have different paths that people enter the hospital.

176
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,199
Speaker 1: So people who are coming with symptoms that have nothing

177
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 1: to do with COVID go UM enter our facility in

178
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: one way, our emergency department, and then those who have

179
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: symptoms that are suggestive of COVID will go another way.

180
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: And that protects the healthcare providers and it protects our patients. UM.

181
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: In addition, we have specific personal protective equipment. I'm sure

182
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: you've heard a lot on the news about that, UM,

183
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 1: and so we wear special respirators UM that are particulate

184
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 1: respirators that keep the virus out of our our mouths

185
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: and and breathing. So it goes over our nose and

186
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 1: our mouth. We wear either face shields or goggles over

187
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: our eyes. So you asked about eyes, it protects our eyes.

188
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: We wear gowns that are impermeable, so UM it covers

189
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: our our clothing. And we wear gloves and there's not

190
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: only do we wear them, there's a very specific way

191
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 1: in which they are put on, which we call doffing,

192
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: um donning, I'm sorry, and then they're taking off. And

193
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: so doffing and donning is putting on and taking off

194
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: the gowns and gloves, and so we literally have healthcare

195
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: workers watching each other to make sure that they don't

196
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: contaminate themselves when they're doing this. So the personal protective

197
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: equipment is really important. Isolation appropriate isolation, appropriate rooms, UM

198
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: and then appropriate traffic control. It sounds like the funny

199
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 1: word to use, but making sure that those people who

200
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: are infected go to certain elevators, go through certain hallways,

201
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: so that we make sure that we clean those areas

202
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: appropriately and we don't risk UM infections among our healthcare

203
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: provile itiers. Our healthcare UM workers are team members. But

204
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: also that we protect all our other patients because we

205
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: are very concerned about patients being afraid to come to

206
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: um hospitals and doctors offices, which is really catastrophic if

207
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: they avoid that that kind of visit and they need it.

208
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: You mentioned certain ways to put on your gloves in

209
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: your masks or something that can help kind of the

210
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: public if they want to better protect that's a great

211
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: question to Sam. So you know, masks can sometimes go

212
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,719
Speaker 1: over the ears, and there are instructions that on the

213
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: CDC website and how you can make your own. And

214
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 1: so there's like elastics are and your ears. So when

215
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: you're taking them of, if you want to take it

216
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: off by the elastic, you don't want to touch the

217
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: front of the mask that you've been exposed to outside.

218
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 1: So it's really important it's removed carefully and take it off,

219
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 1: and that it's washed regularly in a hot um washing

220
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 1: machine cycle and a hot dryer. So having a couple

221
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: of these face cover coverings is really important so that

222
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: you can keep them clean. You can make sure that

223
00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: you're not touching them as you're putting them on and off.

224
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: If you use a tie, one same thing you want

225
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: to take it off by undoing the ties as opposed

226
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: to touching the mask. Itself, And would you say the

227
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: latex gloves are kind of the best gloves to use

228
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: right now. No, I don't think they need to be latex.

229
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 1: I think they can be regular vinyl gloves. They could

230
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: be nitro gloves, they can be latex, whatever you would

231
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,959
Speaker 1: have available. Um, they'll all do the trick. Okay, cool.

232
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: And then I'm just curious. I'm like, if you get

233
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 1: hurt or something like that. I know a lot of people,

234
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: if they have certain injuries that they might have needed

235
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: a surgery for, I know a lot of people are

236
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: putting those off because they don't want to get sick

237
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: or they don't want to get other people sick. So

238
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 1: kind of what are your tips for people who might

239
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: have an injury or might need to go to the

240
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: hospital for a different reason other than being sick. Yeah,

241
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 1: this has been one of the things that's been so

242
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: disturbing is over the past several weeks, we've been finding

243
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 1: our emergency medical workers that go to people's homes when

244
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: an ambulance is called, have been finding, you know, people

245
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: who didn't call an ambulance soon enough, And so we've

246
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: been seeing deaths that we think we're preventable, not just

247
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: COVID deaths, but deaths because people were afraid to come

248
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: to the hospital. There are some things that can wait.

249
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: You know, if you need a total knee replacement and

250
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 1: you've been waiting six months, you can and you don't

251
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,719
Speaker 1: have excruciating pain and you're not declining. There there there

252
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: are many things that we can wait on and we

253
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: will wait. But somebody who's been diagnosed with cancer, who

254
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 1: needs that cancer surgery or an injury that is acute

255
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: which you were describing, they need to come to the hospital.

256
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: They need to call their doctor, they need to get

257
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 1: the care that is appropriate for them. So one of

258
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: the things that's changed during this whole pandemic is there

259
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 1: is a great deal of virtual cal a care available.

260
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: So it's not unreasonable if it's not an acute injury

261
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: to call your doctor and say what should I do

262
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: or have make a virtual care appointment. But if you're

263
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 1: having chest pain or your have or you've had a fracture,

264
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: or you've had you had acute injury, or you have

265
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: a high fever, you've got to come to an emergency department.

266
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: And we have worked incredibly hard not only to keep

267
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: our facilities and this is national, say for our healthcare

268
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 1: um teams, people providing care, but for those people coming

269
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: to the hospital. So certain ways hospitals, even though everybody

270
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 1: is afraid of okay, they're patients with COVID, there certain

271
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: ways they may be one of the safer places because

272
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: we're working so hard to make sure that patients are

273
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: in specific units. If we're worried about them having COVID,

274
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: they're not in the units where we're having our patients

275
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: that were not worried about being sick. And we're very

276
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: vigilant about cleaning and the personal protective equipment that we wear.

277
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: So that is one of the other, you know, really

278
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: potential tragedies that we're already seeing is people dying unnecessary

279
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: debts because they're afraid of the medical system. So I

280
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: really encourage you and everybody else to to really be

281
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: vigilant about how you are and if you're having the

282
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: problems and you have an acute injury or you have

283
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: chest pain, please you seek the emergency care that you need.

284
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: So in terms of your family and potentially a family

285
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: member getting sick, how should someone care for a family

286
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: member that is sick, and how should they go about

287
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: making sure they protect themselves and communicating that to other people.

288
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: This is one of the really hard things about ineffectious

289
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: disease UM, and one that's easily spread is that if

290
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: you are exposed to somebody who's known to have COVID,

291
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: you need to quarantine for fourteen days, And quarantine means

292
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: not that you have symptoms, but that you are in

293
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: the period of time in which you might become infective.

294
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: So it does mean if you can UM either being

295
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: in a different location or UM if you have the room,

296
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: being in a different part of your house, trying to

297
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: use a separate bathroom, having anybody in the house stay

298
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: away from you, bring you food UM and leave it

299
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: outside the door, and walk away, all things that are

300
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: incredibly hard to do. But that fourteen day period is

301
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,479
Speaker 1: the time in which UM you may become UM infected

302
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 1: and you have the potential for transmitting into somebody else,

303
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 1: even before you have symptoms, So that's extremely important. And

304
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: then for those people who do become ill but can

305
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: stay at home, and of the people with COVID are

306
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: able to manage their illness at home UM, then they

307
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: again have to isolate, and we call that isolation not quarantine,

308
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: because they do have symptoms and they have to isolate

309
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: from their family, and the duration depends somewhat on their

310
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: underlying medical conditions, etcetera. So I don't want to give

311
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: advice on that. It's much more important to talk to

312
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: the doctor taking care of them and saying and asking

313
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: the doctor to give them information about how long they

314
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: should remain isolated. Oh, it's interesting how isolation and quarantine

315
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 1: are different. I would hear doctors like yourself talk about

316
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: on the news, and I fully wouldn't understand kind of

317
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: what the difference between the two, where I thought they

318
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: were just the same. But that's interesting to know. What

319
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: about the summer and how we should just behavior during

320
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: a time when more people may be out active or

321
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 1: returning to work. Yeah, I mean part of this is

322
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: going to be tending totally on where you live UM

323
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: and how active the diseases and what's very typical of pandemics,

324
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: not that their typical events is that UM. The virus

325
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: will move from community to community. So just as the

326
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: mid Atlantic states have been particularly hit hard UM, as

327
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: you notice, I'm sure by watching the news and reading

328
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: the paper, it's going to be moving to different parts

329
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: of the country. So giving general advice is it will

330
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: depend a great deal on where you're living and how

331
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: active the virus is. But I think the same tenants

332
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: we've talked about are key, and that's going to be

333
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: harder and harder as the weather gets nicer, but also

334
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: as it gets really warm in places and it gets

335
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 1: harder for people to stay inside. So depending on the

336
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 1: density of where you live, it's going to be easier

337
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: or harder to get outside and stay away from people.

338
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: And that's really ideal if people are you know, if

339
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: you have a backyard, you're in a great position and

340
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 1: you can go in your backyard and enjoy being outside.

341
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: If you live in an urban area, that's a lot harder.

342
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: And so it depends. If things are really active and

343
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: there's a lot of person to person spread, then we

344
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: need to have people stay away from each other no

345
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: matter what. UM. And that's you know, we we in

346
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: New Jersey are living through exactly that situation where spring

347
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 1: is beginning to come and um, we are being asked

348
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: to stay inside except when we have to do specific things.

349
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: And then we're asked to do all of those things

350
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: that I've talked to you about already. So summer is

351
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: going to be complicated. Um, but um, we just need

352
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: to you know, listen to what our public health authorities

353
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 1: are telling us and uh and use our common sense.

354
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: Uh and uh really really follow the advice of that

355
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: I've given today in terms of social distancing, hand hygiene, etcetera.

356
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: And staying in. That's what's indicated, even if it's beautiful

357
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: outside or hot inside. Yeah, I think for people to

358
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,919
Speaker 1: fully understand how important social distancing is, and especially when

359
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: the weather gets nice. I know out here in southern California,

360
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: the beaches are starting to open up, rules are starting

361
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: to change. Like you mentioned, people want to go outside.

362
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 1: So I think the biggest thing and if you have

363
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: any information would you probably do on kind of how

364
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: fast this think and spread and how it really is.

365
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 1: If you have any statistics or numbers, just basic, super

366
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: generic numbers that you could throw out at us. I'm

367
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: not saying you have to scare us, but I think

368
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: you might act a little bit different if you actually

369
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: knew how fast the sink can actually read. Yeah, this

370
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: is a really highly communicable disease. I mean it's it's

371
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 1: really contagious. It's very easy to develop this infection. Um.

372
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: And so when I say something is more contagious than influenza. Um.

373
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: There is a term medically called are not which is

374
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: how many people can become infected by a person, And

375
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: in the beginning that was over five in China. Then

376
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 1: it dropped to two point six. And I've read different

377
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: things in in the country about that in the United States,

378
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: and it really is dependent on exactly the things we've

379
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: been talking about, which is and I'm not gonna feel

380
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 1: like silly saying it again, but it does have to

381
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 1: do with our behaviors. So um, this is this is

382
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: a disease that for some people is going to be

383
00:19:55,560 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 1: as mild as having a seasonal um could um. And

384
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 1: for other people it is killing them. So it's what

385
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: we should be intimidated. We should be frightened by this

386
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: virus enough to be sensible enough to do the things

387
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: that are going to protect us and our loved ones

388
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 1: in our communities until we have a vaccine. So um,

389
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: you don't want people to be so afraid that that

390
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: you know, they're they're anxious and not sleeping, which I

391
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: know is happening for some people, and that's incredibly hard.

392
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: But at the same time one should respect how how

393
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: serious this illness can be Yeah, this has been great.

394
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 1: I mean, this has been super helpful for me, and

395
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: I know it's going to be for a lot of people.

396
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: And so this is kind of the last question for me,

397
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: and it's broad. What are just the basic things, the

398
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: most pressing things that we can do right now to

399
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: be able to help this virus? I mean, I know

400
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 1: social distancing is huge, gloves and maps. Are there any

401
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 1: other things that we can do as a society to

402
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: help prevent this from spreading? Yeah, I think getting the

403
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,719
Speaker 1: word out, which I think is something that you in

404
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: your position will be better able to do than most,

405
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: which is getting the word out about that this is

406
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 1: going to take a long time that we need to

407
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: be patient. The ultimate um solution for this is a vaccine.

408
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: Vaccines take a long time to produce. Luckily, uh, we

409
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: think that we'll be able to go faster than we've

410
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: gone in the past because we've learned a lot about

411
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:27,479
Speaker 1: vaccine manufacturing in recent years. But um, this is for

412
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: most of us, this is going to seem like a

413
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 1: really long haul and will make such a difference if

414
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: we do the things that we need to do during

415
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: this time. So I know it's so saying the same

416
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: thing again and again. But it's a person to person's bread.

417
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: So if you're close to people UM, that's a potential

418
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 1: way to transmit it. So all of the things we've

419
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: talked about are really key. So promoting that UM and

420
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 1: being in touch with your family members, your community, particularly

421
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: if you're in a leadership role as you are, to

422
00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 1: really emphasize the importance of that UM. Accepting that you know,

423
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: you may have to work from home, I'm helping your neighbor.

424
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I've been so moved by stories of people

425
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: who are you know, have elderly neighbors and and have

426
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: left them notes and said, you know, I'll go to

427
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: the market for you, and I'll leave things for you

428
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 1: outside your door so you're comfortable. So those things that

429
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 1: the community people can do, We've been so overwhelmed by

430
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: the community supported the Atlantic health System, hospitals, people bringing us,

431
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: having meals delivered, UM, going out and you know, certain

432
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: hours and you know, thanking the healthcare hero. So I

433
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: think both keeping the public informed and keep the message

434
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: simple enough, just because this is such a complicated area

435
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: so people really understand what the basic things they need

436
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: to do are, and then being supportive of your neighbors,

437
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: seeing what you can do with your for your family,

438
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 1: and being supportive of the of the health care workers

439
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: in the country, because goodness knows, this is a very

440
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,719
Speaker 1: challenging time for everyone, right that's awesome. UM, I know

441
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: this will help a ton of people, And I can't

442
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: thank you enough for the time that you've spent not

443
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: only here today being able to explain this thing to us,

444
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: but also just doing everything that you do every single

445
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 1: day to help prevent this thing from spreading. So thank

446
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 1: you and the entire Atlantic Health Team for what you

447
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 1: guys been able to do throughout this time. And thank

448
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 1: you Sam for taking the time. I know you're incredibly busy,

449
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: and I am one of you know, thousands and thousands,

450
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: and um I've been extraordinarily in awe of and impressed

451
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: with what so many of um our team members and

452
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 1: all healthcare providers across the country and personnel have done.

453
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: This is a This is a really difficult, challenging situation

454
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,199
Speaker 1: for all of us, So thank you. Thank you for

455
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,199
Speaker 1: giving the visibility it needs to help people keep people safer.

456
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: He obviously really puts things into perspective when you hear

457
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: Dr Jan Shar's Miller talk about this virus. And I

458
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 1: just want to give a shout out to Sam Donald

459
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: for taking the time to do this. We know that

460
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,360
Speaker 1: he had a podcast in college, but this is obviously

461
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: a very different nature. And for him to take time

462
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: out of his day and for Dr Shure's Miller to

463
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: take time out of her to talk about this virus,

464
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: I think it really shows leadership on both of their ends.

465
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: He's twenty two years old and his dad is a

466
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: medical gas plumber in southern California, so he's still going

467
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: into the hospitals every day, Greens. So uh, his pops

468
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: out there trying to help folks, And I think that

469
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 1: that's the message right now is how can we help

470
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: people well. Dr schwartz Miller said, Hey, social distancing is

471
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: so important. Wash your hands. If you do have these

472
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: symptoms Greens, like the confusion, chest pain, high fever, then

473
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 1: go to the hospital. But if you have minor symptoms,

474
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 1: that's where you're probably gonna want to stay away from

475
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,959
Speaker 1: the hospital right now. You know, the thing that's so scary,

476
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 1: Greens is that people can have this virus and not

477
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: know it, while other people can get it and in

478
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: a matter of hours or days, they develop long problems,

479
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: canney ms, heart problems, nervous system problems, and unfortunately, we've

480
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: seen tens of thousands of people die. The good news

481
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 1: is that, you know, as of recently, the numbers seem

482
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: to have started to plateau, which means that everything is

483
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 1: trending in the right direction. You know what's gonna happen

484
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: when the country, state by state reopens. That's going to

485
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: take all a long process to get to where we

486
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 1: were in tween agreeing. You know something that's Dr schwartz

487
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: Miller said that stuck out to me. It was you

488
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: should be intimidated and frightened enough to be sensible, and

489
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: we all have to be sensible. And you just brought

490
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:43,160
Speaker 1: up a great point. I think everybody has been impacted.

491
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't know somebody who had the virus or

492
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: has been hurt by it, but everybody has been impacted

493
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: in some kind of way. There's so many people aren't

494
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: unemployed right now who have lost their jobs. There's so

495
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: many business businesses cutting back right now. Everybody in our

496
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: country and for the most part in the world, has

497
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: been impacted by it. And this is where teamwork all

498
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: comes into play. You know, I know it sounds cliche,

499
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: but we all have a hand in this and getting

500
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: healthy and getting better. While we pray for a vaccine,

501
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: they're talking about twelve the eighteen months. Hopefully that will

502
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: be sped up and hopefully we'll all be able to

503
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 1: go watch Sam Donald in a stadium sometime soon. But

504
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 1: this just gives you a sense to of where he's

505
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: at mentally and him he can look at the world

506
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: just beyond football. I think sometimes people think of these

507
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: guys as robots. Not while he's the son of a educator,

508
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: he's a son of a medical gas plumber, and he

509
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: really cares about what's happening out there, and he has

510
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,879
Speaker 1: a platform. So I thought the conversation was great and

511
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: Dr schwartz Miller was fantastic and in terms of the

512
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: way she broke everything down very simply, And we have

513
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: so much to applaud as far as the people out

514
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: there helping us on the front lines, and then even

515
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 1: includes essential workers. Man, there's so many people out there

516
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: every day you think about we we never do this along. Yeah.

517
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: I think one of my favorite daily routines, or it's

518
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,199
Speaker 1: become a part of my routine, is hearing the cheers

519
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: outside my window, everybody banging pops and pans and clapping

520
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: for everybody on the front line agrees. I think we

521
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: would be remiss if we didn't mention the National Football

522
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 1: League and the Jets very successful draft weekend for a

523
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: number of reasons. But it shouldn't go on to the

524
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: radar that the the National Football League and its fans

525
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 1: raised over a hundred million dollars on Draft weekend for

526
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen relief and response, and the Jets and the

527
00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: Johnson family donated a million dollars to local United Way

528
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: agencies to help combent this pandemic. And then finally they

529
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: came back last week, right before the draft, Greens and

530
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 1: the Johnson Family the Jets donated an additional two million

531
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 1: dollars to support COVID nine team relief response in New Jersey,

532
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: New York, and those organizations are primarily focused on food

533
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 1: and security first responders in regional relief. So once again,

534
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: uh so many people to thank here, um and most

535
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: importantly of all the people who are keeping us safe

536
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: in those hospitals and are on that front line, no

537
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: doubt about it, And make sure to keep cheering every

538
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,600
