“I went to Brooklyn, New York, during the peak of COVID-19 the first week of April. I volunteered over 100 hours of my time as a critical care physician leaving my private practice for over a week.
I was one of two critical care trained physicians at Woodhull Medical Center with over 60+ critically ill intubated COVID-19 patients. Normal capacity is a 12 bed MICU. ICU’s were populated wherever oxygen sources could be found for portable ventilators.
I helped developed protocols for daily care of COVID-19 patients and provided critical care instruction to Internal Medicine interns/residents.”
