08/18/2020
The majority of physicians believe COVID-19 won’t be under control until January 2021, and nearly half (49%) expect it will take much longer to get the virus under control, according to a FierceHealthcare report.
Most doctors (59%) also see opening businesses, schools and public places as a bigger risk to patients than continuing policies of social isolation, according to survey of 3,500 providers conducted by The Physicians Foundation. The results are part of a three-part survey examining how COVID-19 is affecting and is perceived by U.S. physicians.
