Welcome to the January 2021 edition of the CMS Imaging
Newsletter. I know this is a little late, but Happy New Year! Seems weird to say that 28 days into
January, but oh well.
A new blog post
Bedside Imaging during the Days of COVID-19
My brother was hospitalized in January 2020 in New York
City with complaints of labored breathing and flu-like symptoms. Though COVID-19 was on the
radar internationally, it was not as prevalent a headline in the United States as it would be
just three months later. At first, he was sent home with a prescription for Tamiflu® and the
advice to cut down on his smoking (yeah, he knows it is a terrible habit.) But after two days,
he was back at the hospital with a dangerous pulse oxygen level and was admitted. His transfer
to the ICU happened two days later when the standard treatments did not work.
