Brendan Carr, MD, Chair of Emergency Medicine for the Mount Sinai Health System, had been at his job for less than a month when the first COVID-19 patient in New York City was diagnosed. Now he finds himself at the center of the largest coronavirus outbreak in the United States. With new patients flooding the city’s emergency rooms, Dr. Carr races to make sure his doctors and nurses have everything they need–from staff to ventilators. In this interview, he talks about the tough decisions he’s facing, and how he’s coping with enormous pressure to save lives.
