Performing a COVID-19 Risk Assessment: Understanding What Has Changed Now That the Government Response Has Scaled Down

In science and medicine, information is constantly changing and may become out-of-date as new data emerge. All articles and interviews are informational only, should never be considered medical advice, and should never be acted on without review with your health care team.

Recorded June 27, 2023

While the Public Health Emergency for COVID-19 has ended, the pandemic itself has not yet been declared over. Although thankfully hospitalizations and death rates have been declining, the virus continues to mutate and spread.

Join Dr. Ghady Haidar, Dr. Brian Koffman, and Robyn Brumble, MSN, RN as they examine the current state of the pandemic, review available and upcoming clinical trials for COVID-19, and discuss in greater detail how to best perform a personal risk assessment now that public health data are lacking. They will also talk about the subject of protracted COVID-19 infection and how to best manage this situation if it should happen to you.

The presentation portion of this webinar will be brief as the majority of the event will be dedicated to answering audience questions about COVID-19 and CLL / SLL.
