Lessons from Wuhan: COVID-19 Prevention, Control, Treatment and Self-Protection
Register Today. Limited Capacity.
The COVID-19 pandemic presents unprecedented challenge to U.S. healthcare professionals. They must treat a surge of COVID-19 patients while protecting themselves from a little understood and highly contagious virus.
In a series of webinars, BioCentury, BayHelix, CAHON and PharmaDJ will host world-leading Chinese doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals to share lessons learned from the front lines of diagnosing and treating COVID-19 patients. They will share tips from China on preventing and controlling the spread of COVID-19 and “flattening the curve” of the pandemic.
