The COVID-19 pandemic continues to accelerate in our community. At the time of this writing, there have been 4,249 reported cases in the DC Metropolitan area and 90 deaths. In Northern Virginia, there have been 1,186 reported cases and 18 deaths. Nationally, we have passed a grim milestone with over 10,000 reported deaths.

As the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically affects our community, I wanted to share some updates from us at Neighborhood Health. Now, more than ever, our patients need our care, support, and solidarity. Our patients count on us for their most basic health care needs. It is imperative that we continue to meet their basic health care needs through this crisis, especially given that our emergency rooms and hospitals will be overburdened in the coming weeks and months. We must do our part to ensure that our patients do not have to rely on our emergency rooms and hospitals.
