The next phase of the Covid-19 pandemic will be extremely challenging as people we know and love come down with the disease. Some may become gravely ill and even die. But we are not powerless against the virus. We must prepare ourselves for what's ahead and have a plan, starting with ourselves and our own loved ones.
Leana S. WenAccording to epidemiological modeling, about one in three Americans -- 100 million people -- could become infected by October without early and aggressive intervention. If we implement these interventions to"flatten the curve," we could reduce the rate of spread. In fact, there are glimmers of hope that this number could be much lower as social distancing shows early signs that it might be working.
