"Maintaining your staffing is key"; this piece is a conversation recorded immediately after a deeply concerning report regarding the situation in Bergamo, Italy. The risk of overwhelm at our institutions is present as the understanding sinks in regarding the fact this is a massive population health issue.

Presented by Desiree Chappell and Monty Mythen with their guests Dr Michael Scott, Professor of Anesthesiology at Virginia Commonwealth University, Maurizio Cereda, Associate Professor at Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
