The medical leaders at 网上买球软件 are sending a strong message to the community – Get Vaccinated and Get your Booster. After months of combating COVID – an unknown back in early 2020 – today, the vaccine is readily available to fight this virus.
“We have three vaccines to counter the effects of COVID which will keep individuals out of the hospital and out of the Emergency Room. This is a serious healthcare crisis and anyone who doesn’t realize this is putting themselves and others at risk,”医生说。. Theodore Tsangaris, chief medical officer of 网上买球软件 Medical Center (CHMC).
CHMC的医务主任. 威尔弗雷德·厄曼绍特重申, “作为一名社区医生, 丈夫和父亲, I strongly endorse vaccination for those aged five and older who are able to get the vaccine. Our emergency room (ER) has been overwhelmed with people – young and old. We need for everyone in the community to stay healthy and ensure our ER is used for true emergencies.”
Leading pulmonologist and medical director for CHMC’s intensive care unit, Dr. Ramin Pirouz from Calvert Internal Medical Group has seen first-hand the devastation caused by COVID. Dr. Pirouz声明, “COVID literally ravages the lungs and the pulmonary system to the point that some must be put on a ventilator because they are unable to breathe adequately on their own. It’s not a pretty sight, I can assure you.” Pirouz has treated every COVID patient who has needed intensive care at CHMC since the beginning of the pandemic. His message is strong – get the vaccine and get boosted. “Vaccine-induced immunity is the best way to protect everyone and especially those with underlying medical conditions,博士评论道。. Pirouz.
Director of Women’s 健康 and Chair of 产科 and 妇科 Dr. 芭芭拉·埃斯蒂斯, a licensed Obstetrician and Gynecologist for more than 20 years, 州, “It’s clear from the American College of 产科 and Gynecologists and the Society for 母胎医学 that the COVID infection puts pregnant women at increased risk of severe complications and even death. Vaccination is safe before, during, or after pregnancy.” Dr. Estes went on to add that it’s always good to talk to a women’s health provider when making these decisions.
全国各地, the state and right here in Calvert County, hospitals are struggling to care for the sheer volume of patients. 黛安娜寇奇曼说:“, chief nursing officer and vice president of clinical services, 所述, “We simply cannot fill our Emergency Room with individuals that could be recovering at home if they got the vaccine. While the vaccine will not guarantee you don’t get the virus, it’s effective at reducing the risk of death, hospitalization and spreading the virus.”
网上买球软件 continues to care for the community despite the record number of patients coming for care. The goal is to continue delivering the highest quality of care to the residents of Calvert County and beyond. But the message is clear – the way to stay safe and healthy from COVID is to get vaccinated.
据博士说. 拉里Polsky, Calvert County’s 健康 Department Officer, 截至周三, 12月15日, 有18个,000 Calvert County adults who remain unvaccinated. 另一个35,000 residents age 16 and older who are eligible for boosters but have not yet received one, 包括4,000年毕业生. For those who had their initial two-doses of vaccine, a booster dose will substantially raise immunity protection within one week – meaning prior to the upcoming holiday.
