I chat with Chief Nursing Officer, Frank Acevedo and Director, Community & Public Relations, Tumlinson Mariana Whitley, of Valley Regional Medical Center in Brownsville, TX and ask them if they are really prepared to take on this pandemic of the Coronavirus Covid-19.
Other questions I ask:
1-What is the hospital doing in preparation for if and when the coronavirus hits?
2-What should we be doing to protect ourselves from the coronavirus?
3-In your professional opinion, do you think there are already cases of coronavirus in the RGV?
4-Should the RGV be in panic mode? With what we are seeing in grocery stores, is this the right behavior we should be showing at this point?
5-Have you heard anything about a national shutdown?
6-Any other insight you might have.
