Coronavirus Update: A Message From Dr. Ronald Feinberg
March 23, 2020 – RADfertility News
There are numerous reasons we shouldn’t proceed with non-urgent egg freeze and embryo creations cycles at this time:
1. Every patient or staff member involved is a potential asymptomatic carrier, and could become symptomatic during the course of treatment.
2. There is risk, albeit relatively small, to ovarian stimulation procedures and egg retrieval, i.e. infection, bleeding, ovarian hyperstimulation, ovarian torsion. Management of these potential complications could collide dramatically with the health care systems’ other stressors.
3. Anesthesiologists and/or anesthetists, who might be needed in many centers for oocyte retrieval, are in short supply and are busy managing ventilators in many centers.
4. Appropriate protective equipment is in very short supply.
5. This is temporary (let’s hope and pray), and no one will lose their skills.
6. All fertility care workers may need to be deployed to other health care and laboratory tasks.
7. Our clinical and lab space could be re-purposed for other uses.
Everyone needs to stay healthy, safe, calm, and prudent.
