Hospitals Separating Newborn Infants from Mothers due to Coronavirus Fears
Expecting mothers can experience enormous amounts of worry and anxiety. With the COVID-19 pandemic sweeping the world, expecting mothers have even more reasons to be worried when hospitals are separating newborns from their mothers within seconds of birth.
Newborn taken from mother seconds after birth
“I saw her and felt her on my chest for like maybe three to five seconds.”
This is what mother, Veronica Batton, told KSHB in a story by Lindsay Shively, March 24th.
Veronica Batton emailed her doctor with concerns about a cough. She agreed to be tested for the coronavirus, but the test results were not back by the time she went into labor.
According to KSHB, Batton claimed, it took a full week for the results to come back, four days after she gave birth to her baby girl at St. Luke’s East Hospital in Lee’s Summit, Missouri.
While waiting for the test results, Veronica had no contact with her newborn daughter other than the 3-5 seconds directly after delivery, the story reports.
Dr. Ginny Boos is the director of infection prevention for St. Luke’s Health System. According to KSHB, in regards to the amount of time it takes for coronavirus test results to come back, Dr. Boos said,
“That is a ‘big problem’ that causes frustration on ‘multiple levels’.”
KSHB reports the turnaround time is getting quicker.
“Just within the past week,” Boos said, “they now have access to a test with a quicker turnaround time.”
Dr. Boos is quoted by KSHB,
We are very sensitive to new moms and babies. We have to sometimes make tough decisions that as a result of some of the other delays in the system that we don’t have control over.”
Christopher Frizzelle, writing for The Stranger out of Seattle, reports that separating newborns from their mothers if the mother tested positive for COVID-19 is the recommendation of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, which is based on CDC recommendations.

Why the Latest Marriott Breach Should Make Us "Stop and Think" About Security Behaviors
Marriott International has experienced their second data breach after two franchise employee logins were used to access more than five million guest records beginning in January. Contact details, airline loyalty program account numbers, birth dates and more were collected – but likely not Bonvoy loyalty account numbers, PINs or payment information.
As noted, this is the second breach that Marriott has undergone in recent times, the first being through its acquired Starwood brand of hotels back in 2018 when it lost a large amount of personal information relating to its customers. So here we go again. While this breach may not be as serious this time around, the big question is what will this do for customer trust in Marriott’s brand and reputation.
“Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me” comes to mind.
Most organizations who have gone through a breach review their security procedures and policies – no one wants it to happen to them again – traditionally extra funding is provided to deal with necessary remediation, which of itself can run into millions of dollars when, at the most basic level, funding a personal information monitoring service for victims along with the inevitable fines and cost of brand rebuild are taken into account.
Therefore, the issue that Marriott will need to address is how did this happen again, within a short period of time of the last breach and for some, particularly those accustomed to the European GDPR notification period, the question may also be and why did it take a month from discovery for Marriott to notify those affected?

USS Gerald Ford wraps tests of combat system capabilities
April 7 (UPI) – USS Gerald Ford recently completed tests of its combat system capabilities while deployed in the Atlantic, the Navy announced Tuesday.
According to Cmdr. Ron McCallister, the testing was a collaborative effort between Naval Sea Systems Command along with the greater technical community and the ship's crew.
"The tests exercise the combat systems suite as a complete unit and ensure maximum availability to meet combat and self-defense mission requirements," McCallister said. "In the end, the combat systems suite achieves maximum readiness and the Sailors develop more operational and technical competence."
