Perspective: When an emergency room suspected I had coronavirus, things got serious fast
“Patient Zero,” one emergency room doctor said to a skeptical nurse outside my private ER room, urging her to put on a heavy-duty mask, according to Kate Sullivan, a friend who bravely, or maybe insanely, spent the day with me, wearing a chic, heavy-duty mask of her own.
Once in the ER, I was given a liter of saline. All sorts of beeps and bonks and buzzes went off from the machine to which I was tethered. My fever hovered around 100 degrees. The diagnosis — after five hours — was a “respiratory viral infection.” I could go home, the doctors said. I was not required to quarantine myself. I should take aspirin. I would be better soon.
