As the number of COVID-19 cases surge across the nation the CDC continues to issue new guidance to all sectors of the public on dealing with this pandemic. One of their primary ways of conveying information to Clinicians and others in the Healthcare field is through COCA (Clinician Outreach & Communication Activity) Calls; essentially 1 hour webinars.
These presentations are often technical, and are of greatest interest to clinicians and healthcare providers, but also may be of interest to the general public.The next COCA call will be held live on Thursday, April 2, 2020 frm 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. (Eastern Time). Due to the high demand, individuals are encouraged to view the live presentation on Facebook, or alternatively, watch the archived presentation which should be made available within a few hours.
