Author(s): Alqahtani, F., Alanazi, M., Alassaf, W., Aleanizy, F. S., Aljahany, M., Joseph, M., AlRaye, M.
Since the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, healthcare facilities have provided services to patients with suspected or confirmed cases of this and other highly contagious respiratory illnesses. In some areas, emergency departments (EDs) have become important resources for patient populations without other ways to access medical care.
