From a well respected friend and intensivist/A&E consultant who is currently in northern Italy:
1/ āI feel the pressure to give you a quick personal update about what is happening in Italy, and also give some quick direct advice about what you should do.ā Jason Van Schoor (@jasonvanschoor) March 9, 2020
5/ Patients above 65 or younger with comorbidities are not even assessed by ITU, I am not saying not tubed, Iām saying not assessed and no ITU staff attends when they arrest. Staff are working as much as they can but they are starting to get sick and are emotionally overwhelmed.
