In the early days of the COVID-19 epidemic, officials, worried about an overwhelmed health care system, urged the public to stay away from health care facilities unless absolutely necessary. Now emergency room visits are down as much as 50%. Fewer people are seeking treatment for heart disease, strokes, and cancer. Some physicians worry that more people may be dying from staying away from medical care than are dying from the virus.https://wp-media.patheos.com/blogs/sites/305/2020/05/1024px-Emergency_Room_-_RSU_MMC.jpg
