Dr. Marriott answers your questions about COVID-19, also known as coronavirus, and gives an update on what’s going on in the ER right now.
He explains how you can help doctors, nurses and other staff members before the crisis intensifies. Marriott explains the gag-worthy reasons administering the coronavirus test is a risk to healthcare workers and why it is a test you don't want to take unless you absolutely have to.
The doctor explains when you should go to the ER and why you should stay away if at all possible and why groups of 10, or more might be one too many.
Amelia asks Marriott about gloves, masks and if you can give the coronavirus to your dog.
