By Angelica | Oct 10, 2020 | Comments Off on A young doctor’s thoughts on our disaster response system, and why we need to change it 

That first day of mid-March in the call center that was later to become the headquarters of our student lead COVID-19 hotline, the disorganization and confusion were almost palpable.
