A wonderful story that documents this awful disease and reinforces the need for social distancing
I knew his dad and only knew Dan from shopping at his store when he owned it

Leaving at last
On April 30, his 46th day at Jewish Hospital, Dan Pilder tested negative for the coronavirus for the first time in his ordeal. He had spent nearly the entire running time of Ohio’s full pandemic shutdown fighting his own front.
He lost 30 pounds. He faces months of physical and occupational therapy to rebuild muscle mass and control. His golf game will need repair.
On May 1, his 47th day, Pilder was discharged with a massive salute. Doctors, nurses, therapists, residents and administrators at Jewish Hospital lined the main hall and filled the air with cheers and applause for Pilder, who waved from his wheelchair that Jessica Jewell pushed through the throng into the arms of his family.
