-[ Sighs ] Oh.

We need to be professional.
-Mm.

-This is the day drinking
talking, not us.

-Yeah, definitely not us.
Please don't tell the Captain.

-Yeah, I was just about
to text him.

Guests are back soon.
Here.

Sit up.

-What are you doing?

-Nutrient drip --

electrolytes, B vitamins.

This will do you a whole lot
better than that nap you wanted.

Doctor who's afraid of needles?

[ Monitor beeping steadily ]

So where'd you learn
to dance like that?

♪♪

-You know, I always wanted
to take dance classes as a kid,

but it's not really something
that boys do where I grew up.

And then...one day,
I got tapped on the shoulder

and gently reminded
that life is fleeting

and unbelievably fragile.

♪♪

March 2, 2020.

I was working at a hospital
in New Haven, Connecticut.

-Yeah, we know,
you went to Yale.

♪♪

-Actually, I was the
attending physician general in

Internal Medicine,
but who's counting?

[ Coughing ]

One day I get a cough.
No big deal.

But in an abundance of caution,
I asked one of my residents

to give me a strep
and a flu test.

Then that night,
cough gets a little worse,

but both the strep and flu
tests come back negative.

Then everybody gets worried that
I've had a pulmonary embolism.

So they gave me a CT scan,
check for a blood clot.

But they also give me
a new test --

a coronavirus test.

Now, at that point, there were
barely any cases in the U.S.,

so I didn't even think about it
as a realistic possibility.

But as I'm sitting there waiting
for the results of the CT scan,

I found out -- on the news
actually...

-A hospital in New Haven
reporting

Connecticut's first-ever
case of the novel coronavirus.

A physician who
was admitted last night

at J.D. Memorial ultimately
testing positive for the virus.

-After that,
everything moved very fast.

They put me in a negative
pressure isolation room,

cut me off from
all human contact.

My blood oxygen dropped to 85%
and then kept on dropping.

I refused to sleep

'cause I was afraid
I wasn't gonna wake up.

And at that point in China,

they were giving patients with
advanced cases second CT scans,

right, so they could chart
the progression of the virus,

the only way
to ensure proper treatment.

But there was a problem.

I was in isolation
on the ninth floor

and the CT scanner was
on the fourth floor

and they were afraid to move me.

Didn't want to risk exposing
the rest of the hospital.

-We are following CDC
and evidence-backed protocols.

You are staying in this room.

-And after that,
I was just in total darkness.

Just black.

I thought I was dead,
but dead people don't pray

because somewhere in the
recesses of my consciousness,

there was a voice,
my voice, very faint,

and I knew that I needed
that second scan.

So I just focused on that all
day, every day, and I prayed.

I prayed for them to give me the
second scan, and they did,

and the results from that
scan got me approved

for Remdesivir
for compassionate use,

and that turned the tides.

So against all odds, and despite
being patient zero...I lived.

And because I lived and because
I went through hell...

I decided
that I was gonna pursue joy...

at all costs.

♪♪

Which I guess is a very,
very long-winded way of saying

that I finally enrolled
in a dance class.

-And then you came here.

Thank you for sharing that.

I will caution you, joy at any
cost is its own kind of hell.

[ Crying ] That's his job.
He's a good person.

Is he gonna freeze to death

-That's a very good question.
What is the water temp tonight?

-You're supposed to know that,
doctor.

It's in the daily
weather briefings.

Surface temp is 83, maybe 80.

-So anywhere between
2 and 12 hours

before hypothermia sets in.

-It is unlikely that this is
anything but recovery.

Only 15% of the people
that go over survive.

The fall alone
usually kills them.

-Well, let's hope he's part
of that 15%.
