+By Dr. Sharkawy: On COVID-19 (Ark, 14. Mar 2020, 13:37:16):
+Imho lesenswert ... Quelle: naja, Facebook :)
+
+--------------------------------------------
+
+I'm a doctor and an Infectious Diseases Specialist.
+I've been at this for more than 20 years seeing sick
+patients on a daily basis. I have worked in inner
+city hospitals and in the poorest slums of Africa.
+HIV-AIDS, Hepatitis,TB, SARS, Measles, Shingles,
+Whooping cough, Diphtheria...there is little I haven't
+been exposed to in my profession. And with notable
+exception of SARS, very little has left me feeling
+vulnerable, overwhelmed or downright scared.
+
+I am not scared of Covid-19. I am concerned about the
+implications of a novel infectious agent that has
+spread the world over and continues to find new
+footholds in different soil. I am rightly concerned
+for the welfare of those who are elderly, in frail
+health or disenfranchised who stand to suffer mostly,
+and disproportionately, at the hands of this new scourge.
+But I am not scared of Covid-19.
+
+What I am scared about is the loss of reason and wave of
+fear that has induced the masses of society into a
+spellbinding spiral of panic, stockpiling obscene
+quantities of anything that could fill a bomb shelter
+adequately in a post-apocalyptic world. I am scared of
+the N95 masks that are stolen from hospitals and urgent
+care clinics where they are actually needed for front
+line healthcare providers and instead are being donned
+in airports, malls, and coffee lounges, perpetuating
+even more fear and suspicion of others. I am scared that
+our hospitals will be overwhelmed with anyone who thinks
+they " probably don't have it but may as well get
+checked out no matter what because you just never know..."
+and those with heart failure, emphysema, pneumonia, and
+strokes will pay the price for overfilled ER waiting rooms
+with only so many doctors and nurses to assess.
+
+I am scared that travel restrictions will become so far
+reaching that weddings will be canceled, graduations
+missed and family reunions will not materialize.
+And well, even that big party called the Olympic Games...
+that could be kyboshed too. Can you even imagine?
+
+I'm scared those same epidemic fears will limit trade,
+harm partnerships in multiple sectors, business and
+otherwise and ultimately culminate in a global recession.
+
+But mostly, I'm scared about what message we are telling
+our kids when faced with a threat. Instead of reason,
+rationality, openmindedness and altruism, we are telling
+them to panic, be fearful, suspicious, reactionary and
+self-interested.
+
+Covid-19 is nowhere near over. It will be coming to a city,
+a hospital, a friend, even a family member near you at some
+point. Expect it. Stop waiting to be surprised further.
+The fact is the virus itself will not likely do much harm
+when it arrives. But our own behaviors and "fight for yourself
+above all else" attitude could prove disastrous.
+
+I implore you all. Temper fear with reason, panic with patience
+and uncertainty with education. We have an opportunity to learn
+a great deal about health hygiene and limiting the spread of
+innumerable transmissible diseases in our society.
+Let's meet this challenge together in the best spirit of
+compassion for others, patience, and above all, an unfailing
+effort to seek truth, facts and knowledge as opposed to
+conjecture, speculation and catastrophizing.
+
+Facts not fear. Clean hands. Open hearts.
+Our children will thank us for it.
