Join our Virtual Grand Rounds: Post-Acute COVID Syndrome - In it for the Long Haul?- on Tuesday, April 13, 2021, from 12:00 p.m. PT to 1:30 p.m. PT
Since last summer, patients and increasingly physicians have recognized that COVID-19 causes prolonged sequelae in a significant number of patients. As experts work to understand the nature and etiology of this syndrome, patients themselves are looking for answers and forming patient support and advocacy groups. In this grand rounds we will feature physicians working clinically to monitor and care for patients with prolonged sequelae, and a researcher who is investigating the epidemiology and causes of post-acute COVID symptoms.
