"An obituary in the tribune on Sunday for Randall, mcnally. So not that ran mcnally, but a guy named ran mcnally, who was born in 1929 and died in 2022. And I think I can just skim through this with you. And if you read it, you know the story and isn't it worth telling? And if not, this is a life fully lived. Doctor Randall, mcnally. This is bob Goldsboro's writing in the tribune. A plastic surgeon at rush university medical center, who developed innovative surgical techniques, and for many years was the on-call cut doctor for the Chicago Blackhawks, treating everything from broken jaws to shattered cheek bones during the games has died, mcnally also had an interesting role in the Vietnam War. In 1972, he was in South Vietnam, helping to recover the remains of extended family members killed in an airplane bombing. Think about that. He's over there in Vietnam. He's recovering the remains of family members who were killed in an airplane bombing, while in Saigon, mcnally volunteered to perform reconstructive surgery at a hospital, treating numerous South Vietnamese children who had been injured or disfigured by the war among his patients was 9 year old fan Thai Kim phuc, known worldwide as the napalm girl. For being the primary subject in a Pulitzer Prize winning photo of people in the village that was bombed with napalm, the photo of the naked and screaming folk standing on a village road in pain from widespread burns to her skin is credited with turning Americans against the war, he is the doctor that treated her. She said deep down in my heart I owe him. I am so thankful that somebody was there to help me. Mcnally aged 92 died of natural causes July 25th at northwestern Lake Forest hospital, said his son, Edward, who is a former general counsel for Homeland Security at The White House. Born in Chicago, mcnally grew up in the south side, Gresham neighborhood. His father, Edward mcnally, owned and operated a company that installed garage doors in the Chicago area. Mcnally held jobs from a young age, he delivered the Saturday evening post, he was a soda jerk. He went to the university of Notre-Dame, was the senior class treasurer. Mcnally won numerous baton twirling competitions as a child. And at Notre-Dame was a drum major for the fighting Irish, marching band. His desire to help people is why he became a surgeon, said mcnally's son Thomas, who was the director of spine surgery, at Weiss hospital in Chicago. His motivation for his high level of achievement was borne out of his childhood. He excelled at the things that he attempted to do, and he loved working with his hands. The things that he could do with the baton as a child, he then translated into surgical technique on June 15th, 1972, mcnally's brother in law. Thomas Kenney was killed in Vietnam, along with his wife, Roberta, and four of his children when their flight from Bangkok to Hong Kong exploded over Vietnam, mcnally flew to Vietnam to help with the recovery identification and return the Kenny, family remains, mcnally's work in trying to heal Kim phuc, who initially was not expected to survive with something that he kept to himself. Most of the people around him never knew that he operated on Kim. While working for the Blackhawks, mcnally became close to such notable players as Keith Magnuson, Bobby Holland Stan Mikita, and a 2010 tribune article by columnist John Cass mcnally recalled the team's trainer skip thayer, working on Magnussen after his jaw was broken in two places. His jawbone was exposed through the skin and he had a bad laceration mcnally said I looked at Keith and I said, you're done Keith, but Magnussen wanted to return to the game. Doesn't that sound like Keith Magnussen? Of course it does. Magnussen wanted to return to the game so badly he rose and began trading punches with the trainer thayer. They were really going at it, mcnally said, to his credits skip did not punch him in the face just the body. For much of the 1990s, mcnally was the chairman of rush university medical center's department of plastic and reconstructive surgery. Watching him take care of disfigured people, burn victims, cancer patients, as well as people from all walks of life. This is his daughter speaking now. I learned from him how to treat everybody equally with dignity and respect. Mcnally's daughter, Terra, mcnally, Montgomery, who is an executive producer for The Oprah Winfrey network, said. Mcnally suffered several tragedies during his life. In 1976, his daughter Anne died by suicide. Then in 1994, his son ran, a navy reservist pilot was killed at the age of 33, while practiced landing in an a 6 navy attack bomber from the Alameda naval air station in California. Our family was knocked down. And watching him endure, I learned lessons of resilience and to keep going no matter what, and to be steadfast, mcnally Montgomery, his daughter, said. That is, the lasting lesson for me, flash paragraph, in addition to his two sons and his daughter, mcnally is survived by three other daughters, Maureen mcnally Morrissey, Sheila and mcnally sagal, two other sons, Patrick and Ryan, 30 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren.

"Start to heal Yeah I absolutely feel that I'm able to start healing It feels like such a slow process but I feel I have more resources This program helps me kind of find that and how to find myself and even in the hard times because there will always be hard times in the future and everyone's lives Yeah Mark Schmidt and I'm going to bring you back in here to end I wonder if you could tell us what you think at stake We just heard Katherine's story there A lot of people are talking about how nurses and doctors are so burnt out that they can't even come to work Well burnout and what we're talking about here are two different things Burnout is a manifestation of what we're talking about It's an effect of what we're talking about But the burnout we're talking about are the moral injury that we're talking about rather is a spirit one It's a wounded a soul And once this thing gets over and the operational tempo drops that is going to allow to allow these rules to come up to the surface And if there is a way to be able to affirm to be able to say you're not alone But what you're going to have at the end if we don't address these things is a healthcare system that's going to be in a hell of this because we're working with walking wounded it's going to reach a breaking point Mark symbol funding is a chaplain at rush university medical center in Chicago and nurse Catherine king Has joined us as well Thank you so much for both of your time I wish you all the best Have a good day The city of San Francisco is relaxing mask requirements even as the state of California is keeping its indoor mask mandate for at least to know the two weeks Starting today in San Francisco if you're fully vaccinated and boosted you don't have to wear a mask anymore in certain places such as the office in the classroom or at the gym Let's bring in KQED health reporter Leslie McClure Leslie what does the change to the mask mandate mean for the people's San Francisco Well I think this allows a lot more movement than people can go to the office and take their masks off They can go to the gym They can go to church Students can return indoor to college classes and take their masks off as basically applies to places where there's a stable group of vaccinated people This was cut the rule that was in place before the amaran surge so back in December you will though this time have to show proof of a booster shot to go maskless And if you're unvaccinated you actually can enter these spaces but you do need to get a negative test and wear a mask If you're unvaccinated Okay so as you said part of the reason for the change is that San Francisco has a high vaccination rate 82% There has also been economic pressure we know from businesses and individuals who have won at the city to loosen the reins and lose the masks But it's thought the decision to drop the mask mandate in offices and classrooms could also be a carrot to get people to come back into the office What does it mean I wonder for you personally Leslie is somebody who works in an office in San Francisco I'll go back to work Yeah I talked to our producer our morning edition producer this morning and I said how many people are at the office today And he said well I'm still the only one So I don't think people are going back in droves today that I think over the next couple of weeks will probably see a trickle start going back in and as soon as this acron really tapers off which is expected in the next couple of weeks you know we're seeing cases drop pretty fast right now I think people will both be motivated by this relaxation in the mask mandate and also because they'll feel safe enough to do so So we'll see a lot more traffic downtown I will be going to the office again which I was before the amaran surge And I think that will be begin to become more popular across the board in the Bay Area In the San Francisco area And just to be clear you've been working as everybody else at KQED It's just they're not in the office except for that one One producer morning edition So a question that always comes up when rules change is enforcement And as you said some people are going to be able to lose them masks Some will have to keep the masks on So who is going to tell people when they do have to wear the mask Yeah so basically businesses are responsible to make sure that this is happening But there is in the order there is an enforcement clause in there that the share for the police department could be brought in if there are reports that businesses are not following this order So if that happens if a business is not complying then they could be forced to vacate the premises or even close until the Department of Health allows them to reopen But I don't expect that in San Francisco we didn't see that before And I didn't expect that going forward But maybe because there's this new nuance with unvaccinated folks potentially we could see it going forward Okay And very briefly California's statewide mask mandate is in place for another two weeks at least how likely is that they going to hold given that the forecast for COVID are in the next few weeks I think the case rates are dropping fast enough that that could happen but I don't think it's quite a guarantee just yet Probably either.

"Why you ended up here and needed a stent or bypass? And he said they'll say, well, I had a blocked artery. That's my understanding. And he'll say, right. And what was it clogged with? And he said, 90% of the time they'll say plaque. And I'll say, exactly. And do you know what was that plaque made of? And he said, most of the time they'll say, a cholesterol and fat. And then he'll say, well, where did that come from? And they'll say, well, I hate it. And then they'll say and what foods have. That saturated fat have that cholesterol. And if you want to continue to eat that way, know that I will be here rush university medical center will be here with our 51 cardiologists to play surgical whack a mole and we'll put in another stat. We'll do another bypass. Or if you decide you want to eat plant based, you probably never have to see us again. But he said just the fact of getting that coming out of their mouths and connecting the dots is super powerful. I think it's cool that what I hear on that is he's giving the patient agency. Were you still like the doctor coming in and saying this is the way it is and this is why you're here and here's what you need to do and then goodbye. As opposed to a line of questions that then compels the patient to think it gives them sort of power over those decisions and leads them towards the conclusion that ultimately wants them to arrive at. Exactly right. Yeah. And now they're a participant as opposed to being lectured at exactly. Right, right. Where they're just going to tune out and go do whatever they're going to do. Yeah. So I mean, frankly, for health reasons, whole food plant based, that's like the Pinnacle. That's where you want to be headed. But I mean, as we start, I think, said in the very beginning of this, you know, we got this climate crisis that's a foot right now. And from everything that I've read and you know, we're already over 400 parts per million when it comes to the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which is, I guess, very, very scary. By 2050, mid century, I think the goal of this cop 26 meeting is to become net zero and to keep that 1.5°C from getting up that high. And I read like what are they asking countries to come to the table with as far as what they can do to kind of reach these goals of being net zero by mid century and making sure we don't increase our temperature by 1.5°C and these are the four things they've asked. Accelerate the phase out of coal, curtail deforestation. Speed up the switch to electric vehicles. And encourage investment and renewable energies. Nowhere there do I see anything about eating a plant based diet? That's insane, because by all accounts, every acclaimed climate scientist understands that there's no way we can achieve those benchmarks without reducing the global demand for meat. And when you talk about deforestation, we're deforesting to clear land for grazing and raising crops for animal feed. There's just no way around achieving our aims unless we adopt a more plant centric diet and get off the teat of our animal food addiction. Yeah. And you know, Khaled bin Laden, you know, one of the Saudi Arabian princes. He is basically said that it is his goal in our lifetime to relegate animal agriculture to the bin of basically history. And he's created this whole venture fund and has placed large investments in all of these companies and startups that are moving our world in that direction. Sell your meat, all that stuff. But here's where I want to take this to the next level and that is almost all of us have seen conspiracy, right? Where, you know, kip Anderson talks about how he found this report by the world Washington institute as part of the World Bank called livestock's long shadow. And in it, they talk about how between the supply chain and the life cycle of the close to 80 billion animals that we grow and then basically slaughter and then eat annually 51% of global greenhouse gases are caused because of that. 51. They also talk. The number that I see floating around a lot is 14 and 15%. It's the same as all forms of transportation combined. But I just heard 6 months ago. Have you ever heard of a guy named Celeste row? Yes, I've had him on the show. Oh, okay. Okay, there you go. So Stanford, the director of climate healers, basically, he has new research showing that it's not 14% anti agriculture. It's not 14%. It's not 51%. It's 87%. Of global greenhouse gas emissions are caused by everything related to animal agriculture. How did you come up with that number? I'll send you the paper. I'll send you the paper. But I think again, it's between the supply chain, all the trucks, all the deforestation, all the water, resources you name it, right? But I mean, and so this is why I look at this and the goals of this meeting in Glasgow in a couple of weeks. And that's not even on there. We've got to figure out a way to get this front and center. I mean, Billie Eilish, right? I mean, the number of celebrity people that are getting behind this message, right? Phoenix. Joaquin Phoenix. It's his birthday today. Have you ever had him on the show? No, I'd love to. Yeah. He is not, you know, he's a reclusive one that guy. Yeah. Yeah. So, frankly, we are in a bit of a pickle right now. And we need everybody that makes sense screaming from the mountaintops. Hey, Planet Earth. You gotta get plant based like as fast as humanly possible. And this is why I am a fan of everything that's going on in this plant based food industry. If we can get people to eat this way, fantastic because at least we'll have a mother earth in a hundred years or so, right? This plant strong, this is a whole nother kind of level of plant based. It's diversity program. And it's probably not for everyone, but anybody that wants to take their health to the next level, this is it. But I am such a fan of what's going on right now. I know you were here meeting with a company called daring, right? You know? And I just, the innovation that's going into this industry, the rate at which it's growing. A couple facts. 2014, global data, which is this research firm, did this research and they showed that 1% of U.S. American citizens identified as vegan, 1%. 2017, three years later, 6% of U.S. citizens now identified as vegan. That's an increase of 600%. Wow. And imagine what it is now in 2021. I bet you were getting close to that tipping point of 10%. Yeah. And I mean, I see the laundry detergent now that's claiming plant based. Right? Yeah. I mean, there's also a lot of like green washing out there. It's like, oh, we need to be on board. This is like the thing that we need to be associated with..

"We're recording this in late October, but this is gonna go up in the new year. And with the new year with January upon us, most of us are thinking about changes we'd like to make about unlocking a better version of ourselves. It's new year new you time. So I want to explore that a little bit. But as a kind of preface for that or to contextualize it all like, make the case for a plant based diet like why a plant based diet? Why not? A Mediterranean diet. Why not? A plant forward diet. Why not? A carnivore diet, or any number of the diets that are kind of swirling around in people's consciousness as they're trying to decide like what to latch on to. Yeah, there's a lot of noise out there right now. And I would encourage you not to go down another not to go on another fool's errand because there's a lot out there. And he said plant based. I'm going to take it even a step farther than that and say, whole food plant based. Because we now know that just plant based isn't enough. And in 2021, there is a litany of products that are on the shelves right now. But as our friend Jeff novick would say, there are loaded with crap. Callie rich in process. It's almost like harder like in the early days it was hard because you didn't know what to do. There weren't a lot of resources and there weren't a lot of products at the grocery store. Now there's too many products and it's very easy to delude yourself into this idea that you're eating healthy because they don't contain animal products. But it's become more incumbent upon everybody to really responsibly read these labels and to make sure that you're not going down some crazy processed food rabbit hole that really is no better than the standard American diet and the processed foods that are kind of part and parcel of that lifestyle. No, I actually would tell you that so I have a podcast too. Yeah. Listeners that don't know this. It's called the plant strong podcast, and I've been doing about three years. And yesterday I interviewed Kim Williams. I know you've had Kim on maybe once or twice. Yeah, that's right. And for people that don't know, he's the, well, he's the head of cardiology at rush university medical center. He also in 2015 to 16 was the president of the American college of cardiologists. And he said that eating a highly processed vegan diet is actually as unhealthy or more unhealthy than eating an animal based diet. And he cited a study that was in the journal of the American college of cardiologists in 2017. And I came on board whole foods in 2000 late 2009, 2010, and one of the things that John Mackey tasked me with doing was doing a line of food products called engine two plant strong because of the 20 or 30,000 different products around whole food shelves. There were maybe 50 that John could eat right. Right. Yeah, because she's very diligent and hardcore. Hardcore. And so he loved the criteria that we had at engine two as far as being a 100% whole grain. Low sodium or no added sodium, no added sugars or minimal sugars, low fat. A 100% plant based. And so he said, rip, you know, in conjunction with the whole foods team, let's start rolling out some engine two products. We'll license this from you. And let's see what we can do. And looking back now, this was so easy for me because I was just really a passenger, you know? I mean, it was a licensing arrangement. I had access to the whole whole foods infrastructure from the lawyers, the graphic designers, the food scientists, you know, they were doing all the travel to the manufacturers and making sure that they passed all the quality control tests and all these things. And I was just basically saying, you know, testing it and saying, yep, I like it or not, it's not going to work. Right. But kind of going back to your original question. So to me, it is so easy to get swayed into this mistress of plant based foods, which, hey, I've had them, right? They're absolutely delicious. But if you are making these the foundation of how you're eating, that's a bit of a problem. Right. So then maybe define whole food plant based. Yeah. And let's build upon that and then talk about why that's optimal. So whole food plant based is when you're eating foods as close to grown as possible that are minimally processed and the one thing I left out earlier is we also were not doing any added oils, any process oils. So for example, if we were to, if we were to pick up one of our products, you'd recognize just about every ingredient in there. Jasmine rice roasted red bell peppers, onions, Ginger, turmeric. It's not going to be pea protein isolates, soy protein concentrates, coconut oil, safflower oil. And what's your find typically in all these plant based products that are littering the shelves right now, is they don't have any whole food ingredients. It's all oils, sugars, salts, and plant based proteins..

"Are both falling compared to last month But that doesn't mean hospitals are relaxing with winter right around the corner NPR's well stone reports Hospitals couldn't catch a break this summer with the delta surge But ER doctor Greg Miller says going into winter there are reasons to be cautiously optimistic with increasing vaccination with increasing immunity from people who have already gotten infected I think we're hopeful that we won't see the same COVID surge this winter as we saw last winter Miller is chief medical officer for vituity a company that provides thousands of doctors and healthcare workers to hospitals around the country The good news is that the number of people hospitalized for COVID is falling It's down more than 30% nationwide from a high of about 100,000 and early September But winters are tough for hospitals and emergency departments higher ICU admissions higher inpatient admission sicker The latest model suggests that the U.S. may not see another big delta surge in the coming colder months But Miller says there are a lot of other patients that will keep them busy You know we're still seeing the consequences of patients who have delayed care So I think we have a potential to have a pretty sick in patient population even if it's not just COVID patients And that backlog and care is just one of several big stressors that hospitals are staring down in the coming months Another is the flu Last year was so mild that experts like doctor Mark Roberts at the university of Pittsburgh are worried about a big rebound this year His modeling team found nationwide there could be anywhere from 100,000 to 400,000 more hospitalizations for flu than in an average flu season There are hospitals in the United States that if that happens in the next couple of months they're going to be stretched to the breaking point They just won't have the ability to take care of those patients Flu is hard to predict and Robert says it's possible this dire scenario may not come to pass But hospitals need to be ready Some hospitals haven't had a chance to catch their breath yet either especially in some western and southern states Atlanta doctor Greg Martin is president of the society of critical care medicine He says hospitals have learned a lot since last winter We're doing a thousand times better Maybe a million times better They have treatment protocols They have PPE They know the illness But the problem that exists this year that wasn't the problem last year is now we have increasing staff shortages particularly in critical care and in the ICUs to care for patients And he says even a low level of COVID patients can squeeze precious ICU resources that are already in high demand during flu season Omar latiff is the CEO of rush university medical center in Chicago He says this winter could only stretch an already depleted workforce People are tired in healthcare and there's a burnout that we haven't seen That combined with the increased volumes we expect in winter sets a stage for even more burnout in the future and even more staffing issues And not everywhere will be so lucky and miss a winter surge of COVID During the pandemic experience shows that some places get hit much harder than others especially those where fewer people are vaccinated Doctor Amy Williams with the Mayo Clinic says their hospitals in Minnesota Wisconsin and Arizona expect to continue dealing with a COVID surge for at least the next few weeks I think we need to be prepared for always having some individuals who are infected with COVID in our hospitals and needing acute care They might not need a lot of beds for COVID patients but she says hospitals can't.

"This is reset. I'm Suzanne in for Sasha and Simon's coming up this hour. We continue to examine what equitable investment in Chicago neighborhoods should look like, plus sports. At first more employers are mandating their employees get vaccinated, and just today fighters Covid 19 vaccine became the first to get full approval from the FDA for people 16 and older. As the vaccine push continues, some employers are bracing for yet another side effect a wave of religious exemption requests. Joining us today to discuss what that could mean for businesses and their employees. Is Crain's Chicago business health care reporter. Stephanie Goldberg, Stephanie. Thanks for joining us Thanks for having me Also with us today is employment lawyer at Prince Law firm Poonam Lakhani. Um, welcome to reset. Thank you. It's great to be here. So Stephanie, let's start with you. Um, and let's start with the news out today F d, a fully approved the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine. It's First to receive such approval. What does this mean for businesses? Yeah. This is a step that a lot of businesses had said that they were waiting for us. In terms of mandating a vaccine. We could even see some more hospitals. Now take that step that we've seen many others, including, you know, Rush University Medical Center at the University of Chicago Medical Center already take just under a burden use authorization, but That the full approval is sort of the thing that a lot of folks are hanging their house on in terms of saying, You know, I'm a little hesitant. I'm going to wait till the full approval is here. Um And so here we are, If I think we could see Couple more shoes drop now. Yeah, definitely. Well, Poonam, it seems, you know, maybe more business businesses are implementing vaccine mandates for employees and and maybe will be encouraged to do so. Um, So how do you religious exemptions come into play and should employers be bracing for an influx in these requests? Um, yeah. I mean, with the mandate any mandate for vaccine, and there are certain rights that employees do have if they subscribe to sincerely held religious belief that you know, doesn't drive with a vaccine mandate. Um, employers do need to accommodate that. So I do think that there is going to be an influx of individuals. Who, um you know, are going to approach their employers with this concern. Stephanie in your article you mentioned the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission advises companies to assume a workers. Religious accommodation request is sincere. What position does this now put employers in This is something that clear and I were talking about. It's interesting because Religion is very broad term in this context, so employers Can't necessarily start well in some of them well, but but ideally, egos, he says, you know, it's maybe not in your best interest to start digging into. You know what Specifically, you know how how this affects employees and other aspects of their lives like it's better to assume that these beliefs are sincerely held now, if an employer has any reason to believe, or suspect that Either not sincerely held religious belief. Nothing precludes them from looking into. You know how this religious belief that decided by employees connects to the fact that they they don't feel comfortable or are not able to get a vaccine. Um What's interesting, though, is that there's there's knows that guidelines and the E. E. O. C on how to do that? So that's where having a that you know, standard practice in place for employers is going to be really important. Yeah, that's that's going to be really tricky, especially with religious practices. You know, they tend to have a broad scope. Um, maybe it's almost like, well, you know what other vaccines have you gotten to kind of compared that way? It almost seems like there's there's not really Much that employers can really do then in terms of kind of digging in or not really digging, but being able to compare And I'm not front. Another thing that we talked about is hospitals have long band aided flu shots. So if you go back through the records of, uh, the hospital employer and you're looking to see who got a flu shot, and he didn't And comparing that to the list of folks who are requiring or excuse me requesting an exemption for the covid vaccines. That will be another sort of tell potentially that the fuse employers will use Mhm will put on. What does this recommendation mean for workers? Um, is there sort of a legal standard that has to be met? Get a religious exemption. Yeah, The legal standard is that the belief has to be a sincerely held religious beliefs. So as both of you mentioned earlier, it is a very broad. I guess, you know, standard that has to be met. It's um you know, just because a particular leader of a religion comes out Pro vaccine doesn't mean that an individual may not still have a sincerely held belief that conflicts with getting the vaccine so it is definitely Difficult review. That really has to be done on a case by case basis by employers. This is reset. I'm Suzanne, infra Sasha and Simon's. If you're just joining us, we're talking about vaccine mandates religious exemptions. The new fully approved fighter Covid 19 vaccine and what it all could be could mean for both businesses and employees with us is Crain's Chicago business health care reporter Stephanie Goldberg and employment lawyer at Prince Law firm Poonam Lakhani. Well, what would accommodations look like in an office? You know? Are we talking about separate rooms for vaccinated unvaccinated employees? I'm not sure if this is something that you've already looked into Poonam Yeah, I mean, most employers are going to Brown of requiring weekly or even bi weekly testing on the part of employees who are not getting vaccinated. Also masking, particularly when in the presence of any other employee is being required of individuals who don't get the vaccine. And many companies like United Airlines and McDonald's are have already mandated vaccines for employees. But as Stephanie mentioned in her article that even though the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago is also you know, setting this requirement. They will allow no religious exemptions to its vaccine mandate. What can they do that legally? You know, That's a really difficult question, because it's really going to depend on what their basis is for for denying that across the board, um employers who find that there is an undue burden to a comedy and individual, um they They can. Still Termini, an employee who refuses to comply with the vaccine mandates and courts have recognized health and safety as being a basis for undue burden. So I mean, this is a little bit of a novel question here, since it's not made its way through the court systems on whether or not Refusing to get covid vaccine poses an undue burden, and it's really going to depend on the environment. The duties of that individual. Um, and the business. Yeah. Well, Stephanie if more companies began to follow suit as this this opened the door for some instability within the workforce. Um you know what? What predicament might this place employers in That is such an interesting question. It's ones that I talked to a lot of experts about because we're obviously dealing with a nationwide labor shortage right now, particularly like in the healthcare sector, which you know is the industry that I cover the closest that's That is a very big consideration that a lot of these hospitals had to discuss before implementing these mandates. And What's going to happen. Moving forward is either you're going to alienate group of people who don't want to get vaccinated or you're going to alienate a group of people who do and don't necessarily want to be in close contact with those who are not..

Last time we talked first, I noticed on your website at rush that the first thing you recommend is we don't have to go out. Don't go out. Can you elaborate on that a bit. Yes, absolutely. Within a few minutes of such a cold temperature, you can start getting hypothermic. If you're not protected, you can get from bitten. So if you don't have to go outside, try not to go outside, Try to stay indoors. Was playing some clips of a gentleman 10 years ago, during the horrific of blizzard.

If you have to go out tonight or over the weekend next week. What's what should you bring with you? How should you prepare yourself, Doc? Yeah, absolutely. So first and foremost, you gotta cover all the exposed areas as much as you can. So had the cover your top of the head of your ears. Glove. The cover all of your fingers and not the half wants to tax. Try not to do that boots that are covering your feet and keep them warm and dry in if you can put on layers and layers of clothing that's even better and looser. And because the heat gets trapped in between the layers and keeps your body warmed out way, doctor these days. It's actually will keep our noses warm, too. I've noticed that the season that having to wear a mask, which is part of covert, obviously it does help with weather like this. If you suspect Frost by what should you do? So first and foremost, I tried to get into the warm temperature immediately. Short indoors. We warm the area under warm water. Not hot because you don't actually want to burn your skin.
