Another cautionary tale related to COVID-19: Beverly Hills, CA plastic surgeon Payman Simoni, MD has died from COVID-19, and as reported on by TMZ, he appears to have contracted the coronavirus from a patient who subsequently tested positive for COVID-19.
The patient had her temperature checked and filled out a questionnaire, but was not tested for the virus. As Dr. Simoni was administering the patient’s lip injections and she was without a mask, according to the doctor’s family, the woman coughed in his face. Although he had a mask on, “she sprayed on him,” TMZ reports, and then “contacted the office a few days later to inform them she had tested positive for COVID.”
