We discuss what a virtual hospital is and how it helps in overall patient care. We will take a moment to read the obituary of a medical legend across all specialties of healthcare, and we'll close with a mention of the "skip intro" button and laugh at a couple of funny stories about snakes.

In this episode of the SpiroPodcast we discuss how citizen scientists are contributing to the COVID19 fight as well as the massive volume of so-called research papers that have inundated journals subsequently flooding over onto pre-print servers.

We will close with something I like/don't like and some inspirational words from Colt's Corner (Henri Colt, MD).
