April 3, 2020--We've talked a lot about individual actions to prevent the spread of coronavirus in Mendocino County: sheltering in place, washing hands and avoiding touching our faces, and now wearing homemade masks when we venture out for essential tasks. Today Dr. Doohan speaks about her work as the Public Health Officer, and taking care of the entire population through COVID-19. "I think about this pandemic from the ten thousand foot view," she says, spending twelve hours a day coordinating the county's health care systems to resond to the coronavirus, doing everything she can to stop preventable deaths from the disesase.
Dr. Doohan spoke with KZYX on the evening of Friday, April 3, 2020. The interview was broadcast on April 4, 2020.
