COVID-19 News Update – The Mask Mandate


Listen Later

Even as the nation continues to struggle with the coronavirus pandemic, President Joe Biden, who took office Thursday as the 46th President, signed executive orders mandating that masks be worn on federal property and for interstate travel on trains, transit systems, and airlines – this being part of the President’s agenda for the first 100 days in office. Meanwhile, shortages of the COVID-19 vaccine are being reported throughout the country, most notably in the Big Apple, where New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio reportedly said the city would exhaust its vaccine supply this week.

Reporting our lead story during the next edition of Monitor Mondays will be John Foggle, MD, a frontline physician caring for COVID-19 patients at Rhode Island’s alternative site field hospital as a member of Brown University’s emergency medicine department.

Other segments to be featured during the live broadcast include the following:

  • Cyber Watch: Special Series: RACmonitor investigative reporter Edward Roche will begin a new series on Monitor Mondays, focusing on cyber security issues imperiling the U.S. In his first report, Roche will describe how New York City is a city in crisis when it comes to how it is confronting serious issues related to its massive vaccination program – it’s not working.

  • Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Bryon, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment, reporting on legal implications facing healthcare providers.

  • Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds with another installment of his popular segment.

  • RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, a partner at the law firm of Practus, will file the Monitor Mondays RAC Report.
