The one case.

We are now joined live by doctor patrick luedtke.

He's lane county's senior public health officer.

Thanks for joining us, doctor luedtke.

This first question comes from a viewer: they want to know if any of the elderly patients who have died..

Had a do-not- resucitate order -- and if that had an impact on how the case was handled?

Another viewer wants to know, will their quarantined elderly mom need to wait until there is a vaccine before she is able to have visitors or go outside?

We've heard about the antibody test from abbot, that shows if you've been infected, after you've recovered.

Any plan to get a test like that in lane county?

Some experts mention intermittent social distancing until 2022.

What happens if we have a vaccine before then?

Lots of people continue to make and donate masks.

Is it helping??

How is the lane county hospital capacity holding up, is the outlook
