“Mass casualty incident”: 600 doctors sign letter to Trump calling for end to lockdowns over health concerns
More than 600 doctors signed and sent a letter to President Trump urging him to reopen the U.S. economy, calling the coronavirus lockdowns a “mass casualty incident” with “exponentially growing health consequences.”
The letter warns that tens of millions of Americans are at immediate risk of serious health concerns or death directly caused by the shutdown due to issues such as missed preventative healthcare checkups, suicide, alcoholism, drug abuse, homelessness, heart attacks, and strokes.
