We Had an Excellent 35th Coffee With a Commissioner Event Today--Lots of Great Questions and Answers!




We had an excellent "virtual" Coffee with the Commissioner event this morning featuring Gay Nord, CEO of West Florida Hospital, Dr. Fausto Devecchi, Physician Advisor to West Florida Hospital, Janice Gilley, Escambia County Administrator, and Eric Gilmore, Emergency Management Department Director for Escambia County.  We covered a lot of topics surrounding the COVID-19 Outbreak--and we had some really insightful answers to questions like:

--When will elective surgeries begin again?

--Can asymptomatic carriers of COVID-19 be contagious--and what precisely is the difference between a "recovered" COVID-19 patient and an asymptomatic carrier?

--What does recovery look like for patients that have had this virus?

--Is W. Florida Hospital using the "cocktail" of Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin?

--Can the beaches be opened in a limited way and when could this happen?

--why exactly can we not release the name of the facility locally where a spike in cases has occurred in Escambia County?

--what will "re-opening" our economy an our businesses look like?

We had a lot of other interesting questions and answers.
