Most of us remember how sudden the pandemic felt, and Brittany Nesbit is no exception. One minute the UW Health Digestive Health Center procedural nurse was speculating with colleagues about how this new virus might impact their workplace in the distant future, and the next two nights later, on March 15 she got notice that her center was closed. In the morning, she was to report to the administrative building to learn how to test UW Health employees for COVID-19, and to help create a drive-thru pop-up site that didn’t yet exist.
