We need to be professional.
- Mm.

-This is the day
drinking talking, not us.

-Yeah, definitely not us.
Please don't tell the Captain.

-Yeah, I was just
about to text him.

Guests are back soon. Here.

Sit up.

-What are you doing?

-Nutrient drip...

electrolytes, B vitamins.

This will do you a whole lot
better than that nap you wanted.

Doctor who's afraid of needles?

[ Monitor beeping steadily ]

So where'd you learn
to dance like that?

♪♪

-You know, I always wanted to
take dance classes as a kid,

but it's not really something
that boys do where I grew up.

And then... one day, I
got tapped on the shoulder

and gently reminded
that life is fleeting

and unbelievably fragile.

♪♪

March 2, 2020.

I was working at a hospital
in New Haven, Connecticut.

-Yeah, we know,
you went to Yale.

♪♪

-Actually, I was the
attending physician general in

Internal Medicine,
but who's counting?

[ Coughing ]

One day I get a
cough. No big deal.

But in an abundance of caution,
I asked one of my residents

to give me a strep
and a flu test.

Then that night, cough
gets a little worse,

but both the strep and flu
tests come back negative.

Then everybody gets worried that
I've had a pulmonary embolism.

So they gave me a CT scan,
check for a blood clot.

But they also give
me a new test...

a coronavirus test.

Now, at that point, there were
barely any cases in the U.S.,

so I didn't even think about
it as a realistic possibility.

But as I'm sitting there waiting
for the results of the CT scan,

I found out... on
the news actually...

-A hospital in New
Haven reporting

Connecticut's first-ever case
of the novel coronavirus.

A physician who was
admitted last night

at J.D. Memorial ultimately
testing positive for the virus.

-After that, everything
moved very fast.

They put me in a negative
pressure isolation room,

cut me off from
all human contact.

My blood oxygen dropped to
85% and then kept on dropping.

I refused to sleep

'cause I was afraid I
wasn't gonna wake up.

And at that point in China,

they were giving patients with
advanced cases second CT scans,

right, so they could chart
the progression of the virus,

the only way to ensure
proper treatment.

But there was a problem.

I was in isolation
on the ninth floor

and the CT scanner was
on the fourth floor

and they were afraid to move me.

Didn't want to risk exposing
the rest of the hospital.

-We are following CDC and
evidence-backed protocols.

You are staying in this room.

-And after that, I was
just in total darkness.

Just black.

I thought I was dead, but
dead people don't pray

because somewhere in the
recesses of my consciousness,

there was a voice,
my voice, very faint,

and I knew that I
needed that second scan.

So I just focused on that all
day, every day, and I prayed.

I prayed for them to give me
the second scan, and they did,

and the results from
that scan got me approved

for Remdesivir for
compassionate use,

and that turned the tides.

So against all odds, and despite
being patient zero... I lived.

And because I lived and
because I went through hell...

I decided that I was
gonna pursue joy...

at all costs.

♪♪

Which I guess is a very, very
long-winded way of saying

that I finally enrolled
in a dance class.

What is the water temp tonight?

know that, doctor.

It's in the daily

Surface temp is 83, maybe 80.

2 and 12 hours

before hypothermia sets in.

is anything but recovery.

usually kills them.
