ABC News: Expert Says Illness Severity Is Virus Dose-Dependent as Doctors, Nurses Are Contracting Coronavirus at Alarming Rate

... #ad▼

At least 140 employees at one hospital alone, Brigham and Women’s in Boston, tested positive for coronavirus as workers around the country work tirelessly to help COVID-19 patients.

Dr. Joshua D. Raninowitz, M.D., Ph.D told ABC News, “When you get exposed to the virus, your immune system immediately starts mounting a response. At the same time the virus starts spreading within the body. An outcome depends on which wins the race, viral spread? or the immune response? When you start with a high dose of virus, it gives it a head start in the race.” Dr Rabinowitz was the NIH Pioneer Award recipient in 2016 and is a researcher and professor at Princeton University (scholar.princeton.edu/rabinowitz).

Dr. Frank Gabrin, age 60, the first ER doctor to die from COVID-19 in the United States, knew that he caught Coronavirus COVID-19 disease while working four shifts with the same mask, according to his friend, Dr. Debra Vaselech Lyons.

Nate, a nurse in New Orleans, said disposable isolation gowns were in short supply, and it was necessary to use the mask for several shifts.
