Just had to point out the guy was an Uber driver. Why don’t they mention the occupation of other victims? Besides doctors and nurses I mean. What are the occupations of the other patients who were exposed? One thing we can be sure of, none of them were Uber drivers. And, apparently the vehicle he uses isn’t an SUV or that would’ve been pointed out as well.
This person is in a position to expose a lot of people. When I taught school, I was aware that I came in contact with 180 ppl each day. When I thought I was coming down with strep, I asked my doctor to provide antibiotics immediately because of my job. I got the drugs over the phone. So I have no problem with the article highlighting the occupation in this case. Should be one of the first questions that emergency room staff ask for respiratory patients.
Have an appointment with my primary care doc today and was told by his office that they are not seeing any upper respiratory patients at that office, the hospital has set up a special entrance for these patients. I would say they are better prepared for this virus than John Hopkins.
