      About the Author

      Introduction

      The COVID-19 disease and death statistics are grim but we as Americans will get through this.  I have been asked so many questions about this by patients, families and friends.  This guide will help you keep your family safe even while living as normal a life as possible amidst this crisis. 

      As a cancer doctor, I have seen many patients with compromised immune systems beat the odds.  There are somecommonsense strategies to help reduce your risk of getting this virus.  And if you get this virus, then there are methods to boost your immune system so you can help your body fight this.

      Many of us are confused and see friends being overzealous about sanitizing.  We see others being nonchalant.  And when we hear or see a loved one hospitalized with COVID 19 or even die from this atypical pneumonia we panic.  This is a guide on what to do in each of these circumstances.

      This information will help you cope with the unexpected.  I have counseled many with these commonsense tips and want to help others through this guide.  Please feel free to share this information.
