Responding to COVID-19: A Science-Based Approach

 

Brought to you by the American Public Health Association and the National Academy of Medicine, the COVID-19 Conversations webinar series is exploring the state of the science surrounding the current outbreak of COVID-19 in the United States and globally, with a focus on the emerging evidence on how to best mitigate its impact. Hear from trusted experts in such fields as public health, infectious disease, risk communication, and crisis standards of care.

The seventh COVID-19 Conversations webinar will will explore how public health, economic, and workforce priorities can be balanced to ensure a safe reopening of the country; how models can inform reopening and what data is still needed; how a nationwide testing strategy can support reopening strategies; practical considerations for educators and employers and what data is available to them; and how to ensure the public has reliable, actionable, and understandable data to guide their personal decision-making.
