Dr. Anthony Fauci said in an interview on Wednesday that he believes that wearing a mask during the coronavirus pandemic is a sign of respect to others.Fauci, the Director of the National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases, made the comments during an interview with CNN on Wednesday morning."I mean it's sort of respect for another person and have that other person respect you. You wear a mask, they wear a mask, you protect each other," Fauci said.He added that while masks aren't 100% effective, he believes it's the "kind of thing you should be doing" during the pandemic."I do it when I'm in the public for the reasons that A, I want to protect myself, and protect others, and also because I want to make it be a symbol for people to see that that's the kind of thing you should be doing," he said. The CDC already recommends that all Americans wear a mask when in situations while in large groups where social distancing could be difficult.Fauci's comments come as the issues of masks have become a divisive political issue as the virus continues to spread. Though President Donald Trump briefly wore a mask while touring a Ford plant in Michigan last week, he has chosen not to wear them during visits to other plants. Earlier this week, Trump retweeted a political pundit that implied Trump chooses not to wear a mask because of looks.On Tuesday, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam ordered that all Virginians wear a mask while indoors in public buildings — an order that most states have chosen not to implement. 1540

COVID-19 is presenting many challenges for the U.S. healthcare system. To combat the problems and fears some might have, healthcare facilities are having to adapt quickly to telemedicine and rely more on technology, just like other industries."All of a sudden, we're in the middle of a pandemic, and I need to figure out how am I going to take care of my wellness patients and sick patients," Dede Chism, a nurse practitioner and executive director of Bella Health + Wellness, said. Chism said the idea of telemedicine came about when she was trying to decide who needed to go in and who didn't. "We launched telemedicine overnight," Chism said.She said within ten days of launching, over 50 percent of their patients were taken care of via telemedicine visits.Bella Health + Wellness is not alone, and health systems have been leaning more heavily on telemedicine and conducting appointments through HIPAA-compliant video chat as the nation deals with the COVID-19 pandemic."The role of telemedicine is several-fold," Dr. Alexander Mason, a neurosurgeon and Medical Director for Specialist Telemed said. "It's allowing specialists to connect with patients both in the hospital but also in clinics and at home."Dr. Mason said Telemed allows the sick people to stay home and not get others sick. "This has been a very, what I would describe as linear progression up until COVID-19," Dr. Mason said. "What we see now is an overnight acceptance of that."Dr. Mason explained that telemedicine had been around for decades. "What's changed there for us in the last five years is increasing availability of good high-quality technology both software and hardware," he said. "We see the ability for telemedicine to shine, not only in the traditional three specialties of neurology, psychiatry, and pulmonary critical care but also in a huge number of other specialties in the inpatient and outpatient space."However, telemedicine isn't for every type of doctor's visit. "Telemedicine can not and should not be used for every patient and in every clinical scenario," he said.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said telehealth had grown exponentially since the late 1990s, predicting it will be a billion corner of the healthcare market by 2020."I think patients are going to feel a lot more comfortable reaching out via camera if we're able to do this and proof of concept," Dr. Nick Tsipis, an ER physician at Swedish Medical Center and Chief of ER telemedicine for CarePoint Health, said. He sees firsthand how coronavirus is impacting the emergency room,"It can keep folks in areas that are most safe for them by using telemedicine. That's one of our primary applications for it," Dr. Tsipis said.Which is just how Dede and Bella Health are using telemed -- to help their patients feel comfortable."One of the things that have risen amid this virus is gratitude," Dede said. "So much gratitude that we've instituted telemedicine that they can see us, and they know we are seeing them.""The innovation is what we're seeing is both physician acceptance, patient acceptance, and payer/government acceptance," Dr. Mason said.Dr. Tsipis says he hopes telemed will take on more of role if after the pandemic is over"When this is over, physicians will feel more comfortable in an expanded scope of telemedicine as well as a better understanding of several different platforms," Dr. Tsipis said. 3409

Do you want to spend several minutes of your day gazing at photos of a turtle in a wheelchair?Well, do we have the story for you.This fine specimen is Pedro the handicapable turtle, a patient of Louisiana State University's Veterinary Teaching Hospital in Baton Rouge.When Pedro was adopted, he was already missing one hind leg. He recently ran away for a few months, and when he returned home, the prodigal box turtle had somehow managed to lose the other one.His owners brought him to LSU and vets concluded that, other than being inexplicably accident-prone, Pedro was just fine."There was nothing medically wrong with him," Ginger Guttner, the communications manager for 686

CINCINNATI — A student at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, was hit "with a paddle with spikes and grooves," forced to drink large amounts of alcohol and smoke marijuana in a hazing incident involving a now-suspended fraternity, according to a report released Monday. The report details a hazing incident that occurred March 16 at the Delta Tau Delta fraternity house, the report said. The student who filed the report said he and other pledges were told they could not leave a mandatory meeting in the fraternity house, even when they requested to leave. The report said the student was hit "15 times on the buttocks," which caused cuts and bruises. People also spit in his face and kicked him, according to the report. Mental abuse is also noted in the report. The student said he and the other pledges were "blindfolded" and put in a room for about an hour-and-a-half and forced to listen to "scary music." Exposure to loud music for an extended period of time has been characterized by the 1006
