what are their safety protocols? every other chair?
The set up/design of clinic might be different than how other schools chairs are arranged, so every other chair won't work. Usually they have 12 chairs per bay and 3 bays per clinic which equals 36 patients per each clinic area. Right now they allow 5 chairs per bay so it's 15 chairs per clinic instead of 36, so it's about 40% of usual.

3rd and 4th years are only seeing patients through May, so they can get all their requirements in. The DS2's will have to finish their DS2 clinic requirements during summer of their DS3 year.

downtown boston just got hit by protestors and looters; a lot of windows broken near tufts. plan is to ramp up from 10% to 25% and so on, but urban areas are pretty much screwed. Much more violence, looting, and corona cases than most other places. also don't think they have enough n95 masks to run at full capacity yet. many patients are gonna be scared to come in as well

emergency only for AEGD and post-docs rn, 6/15 D4s are back at 10%, might see 25% by july I think. there are many D4s who haven't graduated yet

By D4s you mean class of 2020? How about class of 2021, when will those guys be back to clinic?
