In this episode, we discuss the importance of recognizing that non-COVID medical emergencies are still happening.  People continue to have strokes, STEMI, traumas and alike. Dr. McGraw discusses some of the concerns that have surfaced since the implementation of EMS Emergency Protocol 8-46, Decision to Transport During COVID-19.
