The Patients Left Behind

About this episode

The pandemic is putting care on hold for a lot of people with other serious health conditions, like cancer.

Doctors are delaying procedures and surgeries in order to save resources like hospital beds and ventilators for Covid-19 patients, and prevent the infection from spreading. Emma Court reports on the difficult choices doctors are forced to make, and the danger that we're creating another health care crisis.
