Coronavirus VS. Influenza: Are We Safe?

March 04, 2020 • Ogden Clinic / David Cope • Season 2 • Episode 8

Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been the center of media attention for a number of weeks. Such amplified coverage has led to many different rumors and opinions about the virus's transmission and severity, and, quite frankly, is causing a lot of panic.

We discussed details about the Coronavirus with Dr. David Cope, family medicine physician at our Ogden Clinic | Cope Family Medicine location in Bountiful, UT. Dr. Cope is passionate about disease prevention and currently sits on the Center for Disease Control (CDC)’s national board.

In this episode of the Daily Diagnosis, Dr. Cope dispels rumors like if we should all be wearing medical face masks or not, should we quarantine the Amazon delivery packages arriving from China (what about the air from China in the bubble wrap?!), should you cancel your spring travel plans, and what kind of medical treatment people should seek if they are feeling like they might have been exposed.
