Wake Up Bainbridge

Can Social Distancing Still Slow the COVID-19? The answer is clearly yes but are other "suppression" methods also needed? Put any free-floating anxiety aside and listen to this interview with Houston Wade who has been deep-diving the math, the cultural implications and the realities as we reach the tipping point in how to deal with the coronavirus here in Seattle and the US. About 31% of the adult population of Bainbridge Island is in the crosshairs; those are the seniors especially those with underlying conditions. But no one is truly immune. Here are the earlier talks with Houston on the COVID-19 crisis. Part One: What is it? Where did it come from? Part One: What is SARS CoV-2? Part Two: The exponential transmission of viruses. Part Two: The Math On Transmission Episode 318 is brought to you by the good folks at Outcome Athletics and the best personal trainer on Bainbridge Island Bethanee Randles.

317 | 15 Minutes with Bainbridge Island Doctor Richard Saint Cyr | What You CAN Do | Wake Up BainbridgeDoctor Richard Saint Cyr is the author of the now viral (in a good way) blog post that lit up social media last week. In "Here's how to REALLY fight off Coronavirus" , Dr. Saint Cyr looks to focus his efforts on what we can do as compared to focusing on what we can't.We discuss the true value of eating healthy foods, sleeping and making sure your immune system is up for the task of fighting off a virus. It may seem like common sense but these actions are far from what most people do on a regular basis.Dr. Saint Cyr gives us all some great advice to consider as we try to social distance yet keep our community intact.Wake Up Bainbridge wants to thank Dr. Saint Cyr and all of the other health care providers, first responders and boots on the ground out there putting their life on the line to save ours.Episode 317 is brought to you by the Virtual Gym at Outcome Athletics where we now offer Live Streaming Classes

Episode 313 | Wake Up Bainbridge! Show co-host Richard Davis sat down for a late-night conversation with Islander @Houston Wade to talk turkey about the economics of the pandemic at which we find ourselves in the epicenter. If not a ghost town, the local scene is certainly ghost town adjacent as more people work from home, more events are cancelled and many are practicing "social distancing" with vigor. The stock market gets the headlines but the workers of the Gig Economy, employees of small local businesses and anyone looking at may be a long siege against the novel Coronavirus COVID-19 are feeling the pinch. What will the State of Washington do? What is already in place? What is the forecast going forward.  Episode 313 is brought to you by @Outcome Athletics now at the Pavilion and the home of the best personal trainer on Bainbridge Island, @Bethanee Randalls.

Wake Up Bainbridge Co-Host Sal DeRosalia strolled on down to Current Dental to meet up with Bainbridge Island's Dr. Tim Verharen. Tim has been a practicing dentist for more than two decades and he brings his expertise and opinions to the Wake Up Bainbridge show to help inform listeners on how to empower themselves when deciding healthcare options.   And... is it safe to go to the Dentist right now? Dr. Tim Verharen's Bio: (from Current Dental website) Dr. Tim is passionate about delivering gentle dentistry to trauma sensitive patients. In many situations, he can complete treatment the very same day, thanks to state-of-the-art CEREC crowns, bridges, and more. This limits the need for you to take off from work for frequent visits (not to mention does away with gooey impressions!). If you’ve previously had a bad experience in a dental office or suffer from anxiety, you’ll be thrilled to learn that Dr. Verharen and Dr. Waldo have worked with local psychologists to develop the calmest dental experience possible.

Wake Up Bainbridge! Show co-host Richard Davis has a late-night conversation with Houston Wade who has been on the COVID-19 case since Day One. He has crunched numbers, reported news and pulled together an array of information which he has passed along to his following. Blank is getting real and you will find this an A-Z of what is happening now and what is likely to happen. As COVID-19 continues it's exponential march of disaster, I have questions. As a member of the target market for infection and at the epicenter of the infection in the US, I want to know. What is it? Where did it come from? What's happening in China? Singapore? Italy? Why can't we get our heads around the NUMBERS?  Houston has read enormously, followed moment to moment and been talking about it online since December. Most importantly, he is smart and fun to talk to. Listen here for the complete rundown.
