Three webinars next week to learn from Chinese colleagues on #COVIDー19 management from cardiology standpoint. Please register online. The first flyer is shown in BJ time, in Chinese. 2nd and 3nd are cosponsored w American College of Cardiology.

#JACC and #JACCCardioOnc recently published papers to advise clinicians treating #COVID19 patients with underlying CV complications & those with #CVD & cancer. Find the JACC Journals COVID-19 Hub on the ACC’s Hub or on JACC.org: bit.ly/2wg2On1

First and so far only #COVID19 trials open in #Oregon Providence Oregon Portland Medical Center and St. Vincent Medical Center. #SARILUMAB Regeneron, NCT04315298; #REMDESIVIR Gilead Sciences, NCT04292899; NCT04292730 Providence Earle A. Chiles Research Institute Elizabeth Hayes The Oregonian

Researchers at Earle A. Chiles Research Institute launch study that can detect antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 to help determine the prevalence of positive antibodies in health care workers, even when they don't have symptoms. 1,000+ Providence caregivers have given blood samples as part of the study.
