In this episode Mike is joined by his two good friends, Christy Landy RN, CSN, CEN, a registered nurse in the emergency room, and Dr. Michael Litt MD PhD an internal medical resident. Both are current treating and managing COVID-19 patients at Brigham Woman's Hospital in Boston Massachusetts and joined the show to share their experiences and perspective on the pandemic. They provide sound advice on if wearing gloves and masks for the general public are necessary, if the hyper around malaria drugs to treat COVID-19 are warranted, how COVID-19 leads to respiratory and cardiac compromise, and the importance of social distancing. All of us are on the front lines. And we have to do our part to help flatten the curve.

He is currently an internal medicine resident at The Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts.
