    Abstract Disease is defined as complex interaction of 3 things: disease-causing agent, host and environment. The government, CDC and hospital administrations have had reasonable success with the effects of social distancing and coronavirus testing; kudos to them. That addresses 1 of the 3 main factors of a disease; i.e. disease -causing agent. However, there are 2 other ingredients in the complex of a disease; i.e. the host of the disease and finally the environment of the disease. We are the hosts and it is time we take ownership of this ourselves and join the effort with the government towards understanding the dysregulated immune response seen in severe covid-19 and enable the public in strengthening the inner environment and the host immune response. Social distancing can be complete only when the host is prepared to fight the war in the coming fall and winter seasons. The outer environment seems to spontaneously recharging itself as a consequence of social distancing.

    Abstract Introduction National guidelines support the discussion of cancer patients by multidisciplinary tumor boards (MTB). We researched whether early pre-diagnosis multidisciplinary tumor board discussions are associated with shorter times to staging in lung cancer. Methods We reviewed our institution's lung cancer and MTB registries to retrospectively study if an early discussion at pre-diagnostic MTB (pd-MTB) influenced the timeliness of diagnostic evaluation. Over 14 months, 161 consecutive patients with a diagnosis of lung cancer were included. Fifty-five patients were presented at pd-MTB while 106 (controls) patients were not. The primary outcome was the difference in the time interval from suspicious imaging (Ix) to completion of staging (Sx). Outcomes were adjusted for key confounders with a multiple regression analysis. Results For stages I, II, and III lung cancer, where time to therapy matters, early discussion of patients with nodules suspicious for malignancy at pd-MTB was associated with no time delays when compared to patients who were not discussed in pd-MTB. The mean time intervals for imaging to staging (with standard deviations) are 65 days in controls (sd = 42.67) and 75 days (sd = 58.27) in tumor board cases (p=0.39). Adjusting for confounders with a multiple regression analysis among all stages revealed a similar lack of difference in time intervals to diagnosis, staging, and therapy. Conclusion Our stage I-III lung cancer cases (pd-MTB) completed staging in a timely manner, similar to controls (no pd-MTB). The severity of illness at presentation and the availability of diagnostic services and others likely influence the results. Our manuscript shares important numerical data on timelines during cancer diagnosis and treatment. Using this data, prospective registries examining the process workflow may help standardize cancer quality goals and maximize referrals from primary-care/specialty providers. The key findings in our study create a paradigm for future studies to create and achieve "door-to-balloon" time targets for lung cancer care (akin to cardiac care) across different styles of tumor boards.

    Abstract Objective: Necrotizing supraglottitis is a rare but potentially morbid infection most often seen in immunocompromised patients. All reported cases have utilized intravenous antibiotic therapy as the mainstay of treatment and many have had associated morbidities.
    Methods: We describe a case of a 50-year-old previously healthy female who presented with necrotizing epiglottis and was treated with immediate surgical debridement followed by directed antibiotic therapy.
    Results: Our patient rapidly recovered with no further invasive interventions. On follow up she had no further complications or functional deficits.
    Conclusions: Although uncommon, providers should be aware of the potential benefits of early debridement when treating patients with similar pathology. Early surgical intervention should be considered to avoid local tissue loss, airway interventions, and long-term sequelae.
