Yes, I know they're stressed, but they're there. Pick up and move to New Orleans: definitely a different story. I live in exurbia, where the number of nearby cases is zero -- so far. At least there are nearby healthcare systems with some real capability, but go 100 miles west of here -- nothing!
It may be that geography and demographics will decide our fate. Sad.
Agreed, though I just canceled my annual physical in the interests of minimizing contact. A dental regular cleaning is next. My strategy is to have as little to do with the great medical facilities as possible. Good that they are there, though.
Getting your teeth cleaned is actually life threatening. Lets assume you are well. Was the previous patient? or the 4 or 5 before that? The aerosol created hangs in the air for roughly 8 hours. My dental hygienist wife will not clean any teeth while this is ongoing. You should cancel.
My dental appointment was cancelled without a new date.
