Corona Virus Takes Over!

Well as you are all very much aware the Corona Virus, or COVID-19 is running rampant. And, of course, as healthcare professionals and travel nurses you will be on the front lines, as you well know. And the world Thanks You!

Predictions and reactions to this virus run the gamut from a global disaster to a seasonal flu. The news is full of reports every day and loads and loads of information, and misinformation as well.

As you know, it originated in China and is already in well over 100 countries and spreading fast. Last week The WHO sited this virus as a global pandemic. It can cause a wide range of respiratory illnesses all the way from just a cold to full blown pneumonia.

It is very contagious and spreads easily from person to person. It can also survive on surfaces for up to three days. You know the drill. You went to school for this stuff. So, forget the handshakes and hugs for a while. We can always bow to each other instead. 

First of all, hoping that you are in good health and have been regularly boosting your immune system with all the great things that are beneficial, such as eating healthy, exercising, drinking lots of water, and…of course, washing your hands.

Let’s take care of each other and try to contain the spread of this virus, as we know you already are. Safe travels and let’s go Travel Nurses, we know you got this!
