On 11th March 2020, the WHO declared the novel corona virus infection Covid-19, a global pandemic. This set in motion a series of actions by numerous countries across the world with profound effects on the way medicine is practiced. The specialty of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery (ORLHNS) was not immune to these stages. Soon after the declaration, the surgeon general of the US proclaimed a formal advisory to all healthcare facilities across the US to cancel all elective surgeries. This action was taken with two goals in mind.
• To minimize the transmission of the virus within the healthcare facilities
• To conserve healthcare facilities particularly, hospital beds, to treat the possible overwhelming number of people likely to be affected by the pandemic
IAOHNS is seized of the problems arising from the cancellation of all elective surgeries during the COVID pandemic. The academy has embarked on a mission to inform his members about various strategies for starting the practice of Otolaryngology and elective surgeries while maintaining the safety of personnel and patients.
