This goes against World Health Organization (WHO) catch-net definitions requiring fever + one respiratory symptom. New NEJM letter👇

How hospitals are struggling to get PPE. Being outbid by federal government. FBI, Homeland Security involvement. My goodness!! A chilling narrative by a hospital CEO in NEJM. Esther Choo, MD MPH nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
