Dr. Jen Caudle: Wearing a mask is the 'right thing to do'

Dr. Jennifer Caudle, a family medicine physician and associate professor at Rowan University School of Osteopathic Medicine, talked with Action News about Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf's COVID-19 diagnosis. 

"What's wonderful here is that he does not have any symptoms," Caudle said. "He has said he feels well. You know what's going to be important is that he's closely monitored, obviously that he stays in isolation, that he's closely monitored for any symptoms that may arise."

Caudle also told the news station that safety measures do work.

"Well, the truth of the matter is, despite Gov. Wolf's amazing efforts, and we applaud him for that, there are many people who do not wear masks," said Caudle. "There's a lot of activity, whether it's inside the house or out, that that's still happening among small groups, so wearing a mass, social distancing, etc, is the right thing to do.

"What's even more important is that we all must do this, that is what's ultimately going to keep us the safest."
