I agree with this commentary 👇. No visitor policies, and no loved ones when someone dies, are not justified. These policies fail risk benefit calculus and they represent a loss of humanity and compassion that is unacceptable

@docschull @CMAJ And your point about threading the needle is important. It will be a fine balance and we may find it can’t be done safely. But we think it deserves trying as the alternative is clearly harmful. https://t.co/kojyQtVTsA

This is a very special (and grey) area of hospital policy that needs to be revisited and is especially important in the pediatric hospital setting #medtwitter
I agree 100%.
Excellent article arguing that hospitals should allow care partners to be present during the COVID19 pandemic (within reason, depending on local virus prevalence and adequate PPE precautions and screening, etc).
