I’m particularly enthused about writing about health care It’s a subject that affects us all.Over the last three years, it’s been especially important to provide medically accurate information to readers, many of whom have been bombarded with misinformation and disinformation about COVID-19 During the peak of COVID-19 deaths in New York, in early April 2020, I spent three days in Mount Sinai South Nassau hospital I watched heroic efforts of medical professionals to save lives from a virus they were just beginning to understand and witnessed the grim site of refrigerated trailers that held the bodies of those who didn’t survive and for whom funeral homes and cemeteries did not have room.Nurses and doctors said they were eager to talk with me, because they wanted Long Islanders in those pre-vaccine days to know how deadly the virus was and how the scale of death was something they had never seen.When I write about health care, I think about the impact it can have on readers
Before reading my stories, they may not have known that millions of Americans have been struggling for months or years with debilitating symptoms of long COVID, realized how stark the differences are between life expectancies of Black and white Long Islanders, or known that breast and colorectal cancer are more common in younger people than in the past, and that early screenings can be critical.Knowing that what I write can potentially save people’s lives, or at least allow them to make more informed decisions about the health care they receive, is one reason why I am so passionate about what I do.David Olson’s WorkNo results found.More Newsday Journalists0:54Erica MarcusFood Reporter-CriticI do not come from a long line or even a short line of…1:01Gregg SarraHigh School Sports EditorI started writing about sports when I was 10 years old, and I haven’t…1:10Tom RockNewsday NFL columnistRemember Super Bowl XLIX The Seahawks were at the 1-yard line in the final…Meet Newsday’s Team
