RIGHT
RIGHT NOW
RIGHT NOW ON THIS TUESDAY. WE'VE BEEN TALKING A LOT ABOUT SOCIAL DISTANCING WHICH IS WHY
ERIC IS WAY OVER THERE SO I CAN
HEAR YOU. I DIDN'T HAVE THIS
IFB. I MAY NOT BE YOU MAY NOT
BE A HUNDRED FEET AWAY. WE
ACTUALLY MEASURED IT AT LEAST
SO. OTHERS ARE STAYING AT HOME.
BUT THERE ARE STILL SO MANY
QUESTIONS ON HOW TO STAY
HEALTHY AND PREVENT CATCHING
THE CORONA FIRE. WE ASKED YOU,
OUR VIEWERS TO TEXT US YOUR
QUESTIONS AND NOW DR. GEORGINA
NANOS, PHYSICIAN AND CEO OF
KIND HEALTH GROUP JOINS US ON
THE PHONE TO ANSWER SOME OF
THE QUESTIONS. THANKS SO MUCH
FOR BEING HERE, DOCTOR. SURE.
APPRECIATE IT THIS MORNING.
HAVE YOU BEEN GETTING A LOT OF
THESE TYPES OF QUESTIONS
RECENTLY? I BET YOU HAVE. I'VE
BEEN GETTING ALL KINDS OF BUT I
DID MY BEST TO ANSWER ALL OF
THEM. ALL RIGHT. SO LET'S GET
STRAIGHT TO SOME OF OUR VIEWER
QUESTIONS THIS MORNING. THIS IS
FROM RANDY IN VISTA. IS IT TRUE
THAT EVENTUALLY WE WILL ALL GET
THE VIRUS? GOOD QUESTION. THAT
IS A GOOD QUESTION. I IT IS
TRUE THAT PROBABLY A LOT OF US
WILL EITHER GET IT OR KNOW
SOMEONE WHO HAS HAD IT AND
THE DEGREE OF OUR OF OUR
SYMPTOMS IS GOING TO VARY
TREMENDOUSLY. I DO SAYING THIS
IN THE BEGINNING THE VAST
MAJORITY OF US AT LEAST OVER 70
75 PERCENT WHO ARE HEALTHY ARE
NOT GOING TO EXPERIENCE ANY
MAJOR COMPLICATIONS FROM THIS
VIRUS. AND SO THAT'S THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING TO REMEMBER.
AND THE REASON WE'RE DOING ALL
OF THESE SOCIAL DISTANCING AND
CONTAINMENT MEASURES IS TO
PROTECT THAT OTHER PERCENTAGE
OF OUR POPULATION. OUR ELDERLY
ARE PEOPLE OVER 65 PEOPLE WITH
CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS WHO
MAY ACTUALLY SUFFER
COMPLICATIONS FROM THIS. AND IN
THE ABSENCE OF A TREATMENT OR
VACCINE WE REALLY NEED TO
PROTECT THAT VULNERABLE
POPULATION OF OUR COUNTRY. YES.
THIS IS HAPPENING BUT MOST OF
US ARE GOING TO BE OK. YEAH, AS
WE BRING UP THE NEXT QUESTION
HERE. YEAH. WAS THE PRESIDENT
YESTERDAY SAYING WE JUST IF WE
CAN ALL JUST BEAR DOWN FOR 15
DAYS THAT COULD HELP US GO A
LONG WAY HERE. THE NEXT
QUESTION HERE FOR YOU, DOCTOR.
I HAVE HAD A DRY COUGH FOR
ABOUT A WEEK BUT NO FEVER OR
HEADACHE. SHOULD I GET TESTED
OR WAIT FOR OTHER SYMPTOMS?
GREAT QUESTION THERE. AND
THE ANSWER TO THAT IS THAT YOU
PROBABLY GET TESTED AT THIS
TIME RECEIVING YOU CAN'T YOU
MAY HAVE KOBE 19 AND IT DOESN'T
ALWAYS PRESENT WITH A FEVER
ESPECIALLY IN YOUNGER,
HEALTHIER PEOPLE. SO HE MAY
DEVELOP WORSE SYMPTOMS AND AS
LONG AS YOU CAN MANAGE YOUR
SYMPTOMS AT HOME WE'RE ASKING
YOU TO STAY HOME. WE HAVE A
VERY STILL VERY LIMITED AMOUNT
OF PASSING. THOSE TESTS ARE
RESERVED FOR ARE THE PERCENTAGE
OF OUR POPULATION THAT'S GOING
TO NEED HOSPITALIZATION,
CRITICAL CARE OR EMERGENCY ROOM
BEDS. AND SO THOSE TESTS WE'RE
REALLY RESERVING FOR THAT GROUP
IN PARTICULAR. YOU CAN STAY
HOME AND MANAGE AND ISOLATE
YOURSELF. THAT'S THE BEST THING
YOU CAN DO RIGHT NOW. OK, LET'S
TAKE ANOTHER QUESTION HERE AND
WE'RE GOING TO ROLL RIGHT
ALONG. THIS ONE COMES FROM PAM
IN POWER. SHE WANTS STEALTH.
ONCE YOU GET CORONA VIRUS AND
THEN GET BETTER, ARE YOU MORE
SUSCEPTIBLE TO GETTING IT
AGAIN? AND THAT'S SOMETHING WE
DON'T REALLY KNOW THE ANSWER TO
YET. AND WITH MANY VIRUSES THEY
CAN CHANGE OVER TIME IN OUR
POPULATION AND THERE COULD BE
DIFFERENT STRAINS OF THE SAME
VIRUS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE FLU HAS
SEVERAL DIFFERENT STRAINS AND
SO WE DON'T KNOW YET HOW THIS
VIRUS IS GOING TO CHANGE. SO
JUST BECAUSE YOU HAD ONE
DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN YOUR
IMMUNE TO GETTING IT AGAIN OR
THAT YOU'RE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE.
SO WE'RE JUST EVERY ASKING
EVERYONE TO JUST EXERCISE
EXTREME CAUTION AND FOLLOW
THE PUBLIC HEALTH GUIDELINES
THAT ARE OUT THERE NOW. RIGHT.
WE GOT ONE MORE FOR YOU. THANK
YOU, DR. NANOS. IT SAYS QUOTE
HI, I LIVE IN SPRING VALLEY. MY
QUESTION IS WHILE I AM OUT IN
PUBLIC AND PROTECTED WITH A
FACE MASK OR EVEN GOGGLES, I
HAVE ASTHMA. THANKS, AARON. OK.
SO UNLESS YOU HAVE A LISTENER
OR A HEALTH CARE WORKER OR
YOU'RE ALREADY IN IT, IT'S NOT
RECOMMENDED THAT YOU WEAR A
FACE MASK ON THE FACE MASK IS
NOT REALLY DESIGNED TO PROTECT
THE HEALTHY BUT PROTECT HEALTH
CARE WORKERS WHO ARE VERY, VERY
CLOSE CONTACT WITH PEOPLE WHO
WE KNOW ARE VERY SICK. THE YOUR
YOUR MOST IMPORTANT NEW LINE OF
DEFENSE IS HANDWASHING ABOVE
ALL OTHER THINGS YOU WANT WASH
YOUR HANDS THOROUGHLY. YOU
DON'T WANT TO SHAKE HANDS,
DON'T WANT A HUG. YOU SAID YOU
WANT TO DISINFECT YOUR PHONES
AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND JUST
KEEP SOME DISTANCE FROM FROM
EVERYONE AROUND YOU. AT LEAST
60 IS WHAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING
AT THIS TIME. THE MASKS ARE NOT
THAT HELPFUL AT THIS POINT SO I
WOULDN'T WASTE A LOT OF ENERGY
TRYING TO GET MASKS TO FOCUS ON
HAND WASHING, HAND SANITIZER
AND SOCIAL DISTANCING AND
STAYING HOME. YOU CAN. YEAH.
