Discussing global health has hit our living rooms, workplaces and places of leisure (if some are lucky enough to enjoy those again) around the world. It truly is amazing that so many people throughout the world are enduring the same global health crisis during the same time.

During this time, I was a floor nurse in Brooklyn, New York. H1N1, otherwise known as swine flu, was a different strain of influenza. Patients infected with H1N1 could experience a fever, cough and even cases of death. According to the New York City Department of Health, over two thousand people were hospitalized for H1N1.

Policies were changing daily and caution was added while performing emergency interventions.
