Episode description

Just one health-care startup had 139,000 new doctors join and 1.35 million patients use telemedicine last week. Is this temporary or the evolution of a trend with staying power? 

 In this edition of TechFirst with John Koetsier, I chat with the CEO of Vonage, Alan Masarek.  

Some of the increases he's seen:  
- Total video traffic up 6.5x in last six months  
- Total video traffic up just over 2x in the last 3 weeks of March  
- Healthcare is specifically up more than 20x
