Stars: They're just like the rest of L.A. dwellers, fearful of the spreading coronavirus, but with a doctor on speed dial to answer their questions
Stars. They're just like the rest of L.A. dwellers, fearful of the spreading coronavirus, but with a doctor on speed dial to probe with their questions.
While currently there are no confirmed cases of the COVID-19 strain of coronavirus in Los Angeles County, the panic has spread throughout Hollywood circles. Brenner has been sharing with clients how the symptoms for the coronavirus are very similar to the symptoms of a bad flu — fever, cough, muscle aches. "The difference is that whereas with the annual flu, you feel crappy for a couple of days and then you start feeling better, coronavirus sends people into a downward spiral of respiratory illness whereby they have to go to hospitals," he said.
But, Michelson advised, "If you are going to places in which there are a lot of other people, whether it's a movie theater, a concert, a basketball game at the Staples Center, a hockey game, an airport, a conference or all the places where people tend to congregate, the supermarket, school — all of those types of places have risk of exposure."
But it turns out, regular surgical masks are better than the N95 variety. "The reason is, people don't even know how to use the N95," according to Michelson. "You cannot have people in your workplace who are symptomatic," Michelson added. "Because what we are worried about is continuity of business. That involves knowing the outside U.S. travel plans of your employees, whether they're traveling for business or pleasure. If they've been in Yokohama, if they've been in those quarantine towns in Italy, if they've been any place in China, they can't come to the office for 14 days period.
Of the other "outrageous" requests that have come across Farzam's agenda — Farzam shared, "We've gotten everything from stockpiling on Tamiflu to oxygen tanks to HIV medications in the event that there was a severe outbreak that would not be able to be managed by the hospital system."
