Dr. Joe gives us a COVID update with numbers from his work in Memphis, Tennessee. He foresees a continued spike in hospitalizations. This corresponds with reports from co-host Sam Bradley, who is working with an EMS staffing company in Louisiana to manage surging cases there that threaten to overwhelm hospital and ambulance systems. Becky found us this link to the Project N95 site that helps sort through counterfeit safety masks.
