Virtual Grand Rounds: National COVID-19 Surge
The nation is already experiencing an unprecedented and widespread surge of COVID-19, which may get further compounded by holiday travel, social gatherings and the risk of co-infection with winter respiratory viruses.
On Tuesday, December 8 at 12:00pm, the California Health and Human Services Agency (CHHS) and Medical Association (CMA) are hosting a conversation with physicians that hold central roles in our national COVID-19 response:
- Eric Goosby, M.D., Professor of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Dr. Goosby has had significant experience in previous responses to infectious diseases, including serving as a senior advisor to President Barack Obama on HIV-related issues. He will also share how the coronavirus response may evolve into 2021.
- Seema Jain, M.D., Chief, Disease Investigations Section for the Infectious Diseases Branch, California Department of Public Health (CDPH). Dr. Jain will share her experience on viral respiratory co-infections and provide an update on California's disease burden and epidemiology, as well as how to think about co-infections with winter respiratory viruses like influenza as we move into the winter months.
Please visit the California Medical Association website for registration details.
