Yep, and most of the care these people will need will be supportive and require no special training other than how to properly use the protective clothing. One or two doctors and nurses can start the IV’s and do the initial evaluations/orders on a large number of patients without a lot of direct contact.

Feel free to volunteer at any time to suit up and take temperatures and change bedding and clean up after these patients.

Oh, and we’ve always been needed, so you’re welcome for all the years I’ve participated in it already.

The government needs to provide complete malpractice insurance coverage for retired physicians who volunteer their time. Most physicians are put in a situation where they can’t volunteer their services for free when they retire as they still need the high cost malpractice insurance.
