So I was talking to our criticalist today. I was thinking if push comes to shove, should we offer up our ventilator for human use?
Apparently I’m not the first one to think of that. She showed me a huge spreadsheet put together by the Critical Care college of veterinary-owned ventilators that will be offered up for human use should the need arise. All the contact details, where the ventilators are and so on. It will be a drop in the bucket. But each one of those could save some lives.

Post 9/11, I was given very quick training by the Army and detailed part-time to the HHS secretary's office as an instant expert on countermeasures for chemical terrorism. I got side-tracked into working on hospital surge capacity for a while. We had that spreadsheet.
Incidentally, while we were supposed to be working on requirements for exotic mass casualty scenarios from DHS about chem warfare agents in transit hubs, dirty bombs, and massive releases of weaponized bugs in Manhattan, the thing all the real experts worried about was pandemic flu. People have been warning about pretty much this current scenario for years and years.

Well. Next week in Neuro we’re going to emergencies only, skeleton crew. I’ll be in the office Mon-Wed, working the phones from home Thursday. My colleague will work Thurs-Sat, working the phones from home on Wednesday. On call other days as needed. Interns 3.5 days in the office, 1.5 days working the phones from home. Maybe the imaging techs stay at home and get called in as needed.

To me, this is not really what the “groups of 10” idea is about. It only takes contact with 1 person to catch this disease. Ten people should be for unavoidable situations like the grocery store. Not for fun events where congregating is optional.

You can ride, they just say stay 6 feet from others. Personally I think it should be solo rides only, or riding with someone in your household. One of our local groups is splitting the group into packets of 10 or less to ride separate routes, telling people to stay 6 feet apart.

I went to our local wine tasting room and bought a bottle today. They’re shut down for tastings but bottle sales are ok. Don’t know how they’ll make it through this COVID19 shutdown, but I’m doing my part. Figure I can buy a bottle per week and do my part.
