9:45 am
alper and he's an internist at in private practice in san francisco. it paul an emergency medical physici at northwestern and doctor christopher wylie public health professor at berkeley, thank you to all of you for joining us. let me ask you this is a medical question but the deathtoll from this virus really is staggering it is appalling but most pele who become infected. they survive are we learning anything fr those people in the fight agait the virus for example does their blood contained the antibodyis that threst of us don't have doctor alfre will start with you. that's a great question. so we are learng what we a couple things that we know is that as you mentioned in your in your question. >>a great number of people will get bett and that's an important thing for everye to know is that it's the small minority of people who end up so sick that they require the hospital where the i c u so the vast marity of people
9:46 am
are the ones who will tend to do better and if this will feel like a to li illness. in any kind of a viral infection. one developed an antibody response and those antibodies th are developed are ing explored as possible. >>treatments r people who are ctively battling the coronavirus infection. so those anybody's can be taken from one person and throh a very complicated process gin to someone else and it's very experimental at this point an unproven. but those are that's one of the things that's being explored the otr thing trying to determine if the people who havbeen infected are developingthe kind of longer term immunity that you see with a lot of our own actions. you see different types of of resultt immuni from a different kinds of infectionsto different durations of different viruses 2 different things. >>doctor paul anything to add to that. >>me i agree with doctor out front in the short answer to your question is yes, the
9:47 am
longer side in a complicated question is that it's still very much a work in we do know some of the things that doctor alfred mention fr tbreaks in just the general study biology immunology there are proven techniques that have worked in other scenarios that are being exrimented with currently with the coronavirus so they're like ends on deck when it comes to scientific community looking intothis in terms of clinical trials of its top institutions that the countries as well as iernatial clinical trials are being by the world health organization so it be more to come on thatfront and relatively short order. >>doctor wiley i know you're more involved with policy and your part of a a large study you've been involved with tell us abouthat what do you what doyou do >>that'right so this is an area where there's los of anecdotes but acally not much actual data on what it's like on the ground sources issuesnow that health care providers so a couple weeks ago we actuallsurveyed abou
9:48 am
3,000 health professionals and positions across the country questions around access to nt testi concern for the patients being able toaccess testing and then just kinof genelly what says issues across country think about the 19 response. >>so i have to ask doctor wiley whatare you hearing one of the major concerns. >>so a lot of what we hear anecdotally is really actually cked up by data in our study so about 75% of the positions ofthe study actually were concerned that patients were unable to get tested and over happens positions in our survey actually had patients who treats to the 19 sis symptoms but we're not ab to get tested for these patients. >>yeah, at whole question of who should get tested d on kps cong up. we're going to throw in a lot of viewer some of them a very od. one viewer for example asks if we can be rinfected. do we know that nd of flare up again like say a the aids or
9:49 am
herpes doctor alper. >>so the the absolute answ to that is that we don't know it. the presumption is that like other viral illnesses as doctor paul mentioned earlier general understandings of our allergy immunology. >>is thatyou will some level of immunity. the coronavirus belongs to a faly of viruses at cause some of which cause thecommon cold. the common colds caused by a variety of different viruses. but we all know that we can catch a cold multiple times and that's because number one it could be a different virus that's causing the call each time, but it also could be the same virus that actually comes in a little bit. you knowafte your immunity has waned so certain viruses will will cause a certain level of immuneresponse and the persistence of protection is the coronavirus is new and we don't havea long experience with it. it is unknown whether the immuni that one develops will persist. so it is
9:50 am
probably true that you won't be able to catch it right away, but no one knowsif a yearfrom now or 6 months or 18 months or what have you. what thaclinical experience will be and that's one of t thin that i'm i'm sure a huge battery of scientists are studying. >>personally know a number of people still travelinacross town to visit relatives to see andchildren and there seems to be a feeling of well we're all family so we know o are okay, but i mean bottom line they cannot bsure of that correct. >>yoknow the answers they so if the current recommendations are that you can see yocan spend time with the people in your immedia family unit and those are thpeoplthat you live west or if you have you know steady roommates if you're in that situation, the people that you live and i'm with and in a home in which you can goto sleep. they going across town to visit relatives is in meone is the same as visiting. a friend which is currently not recommended. yocould be
9:51 am
asymptomatic ensuring the virus you could have it in a variety of different situationsso if you're visiting those relatives you could be putting them at risk. >>yeah doctor poll, y agree. >>i tend to have discussions with my family about exactly the same scenario where itis a false sense of security because the perception is you know alice your family across town mit be interacting en i got out front point. you can't ways be sure of that and at's why it's really more focused on unit itself and even my parents at who are also having similar trouble out on the seas is the question is where we're sitting here for viewers surely grapple with what they or cannot do you think about as me to find the concept of m one and then also emphasizing the variables that you can control in this kind of ciumstance you have to really ink about in your day to day life youmay not really
9:52 am
thought about what y need to go the grocery store every single day. now you need to think about that and trying to actually consider limiting your posure to other people. when it comes down to their evils of corol to doctor plain if i were to go ross town and visit my cousin. i have no control over his making that seem intended decision to do that to somebody else and that's how you know it looks how the jenin certain natiwide reading control of each inpendent decision doesn't seem that but handful of those decisions in conrt can actually have a pretty in fact when it comes to exposure and frankly in case and that of that we do have you can perience the country's there has been goodamount of familial spreadnfortutely oks home you're sick and may get their family members said to ground you're able to containthe start making decisions to expandthe on the
