Midway through an interview during a Netflix documentary he created in 2018, Dr. Ryan McGarry realized all major US hospitals had, on any given day, only two days worth of drugs and supplies on hand at any given moment — the equivalent of the produce stored by the average restaurant on a daily basis.

“You’ve heard that doctors and nurses are ‘the front lines’ in this COVID battle — the truth is in any ER in America on any given day we are always the front line. My nursing colleagues are always asked to do more with less. There are never enough ICU beds. Our normal is a borderline disaster, and yet somehow among us — even now — compassion and empathy still shines through most.” -RYAN MCGARRY

It inspired the CBS Television drama series, Code Black, for which Dr. McGarry served as executive producer and writer. Currently, Dr. McGarry is co-creator and executive producer of the Netflix documentary series PANDEMIC, which follows emerging viruses around the world.
