The latest podcast from Genesis is now available. “Mask Science: What are the Proven Facts of Face Coverings” is a conversation with Jason Chertoff, M.D., M.P.H., Genesis Pulmonary/Critical Care Specialists. Dr. Chertoff is fellowship-trained in pulmonary/critical care medicine. He shares practical ideas on wearing masks to protect community members from COVID-19 and save lives.
“We’ve seen more cases in the last two weeks than during the entire COVID-19 pandemic,” Dr. Chertoff said. “In the Intensive Care Unit, patients with COVID coming in typically state they were not wearing masks or were around people not wearing masks,” he said. Dr. Chertoff reminds everyone that there are few treatments for COVID-19. “Wearing masks is one thing we can do that has been shown to protect the community and protect ourselves.”
