This is an ongoing series of webinars focused on various topics and issues related to coronavirus and COVID-19. These webinars feature guest speakers who are experts in their subject area. They are held approximately twice a month and are open to the HIV workforce in Chicago and Illinois as well as communities we serve.
The goal of this series - which will end when COVID-19 is no longer a “thing” - is to help keep us informed on COVID-19, to support our efforts in separating truth from fiction, to provide opportunities to ask questions, and to bolster our information dissemination efforts with our communities impacted by this pandemic.
For more information on the COVID-19 Grand Rounds, or if you have suggested topics or speakers to suggest, please contact Jim Pickett at jpickett@aidschicago.org.
