CDC COCA Call on Novel Coronavirus Today


#14,778

With the emerging novel coronavirus spreading out of China and dominating the headlines, the CDC will hold a COCA (Clinicians Outreach and Communication Activity) call this afternoon with their latest recommendations. 
Primarily of interest to clinicians and healthcare providers, COCA (Clinician Outreach Communication Activity) calls are designed to ensure that practitioners have up-to-date information for their practices.
This is bound to be a heavily attended session, and so you'll want to log in early, and if possible, access it in a group format.  The call should be recorded, and made available for viewing, in a couple of days.
