Summer Covid-19 Update

In our inaugural Grand Rounds of the academic year, we will explore the current landscape of the Covid pandemic in the setting of this summer’s uptick in cases. We’ll cover the new booster, today’s variants, and how individuals and institutions should respond to current trends. The session will begin with an epidemiology update by the returning George Rutherford, followed by a panel discussion in which George will be joined by Peter Chin-Hong and Monica Gandhi.

Speakers
Peter Chin-Hong, MD, is professor of medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases at UCSF Health; associate dean for regional campuses, UCSF School of Medicine.

Monica Gandhi, MD, MPH, is professor of medicine and associate chief of the Division of HIV, Infectious Diseases and Global Medicine at ZSFG; director of the UCSF-Gladstone Center for AIDS Research and medical director of the HIV Clinic (“Ward 86”) at San Francisco General Hospital. Her new book, Endemic, reviews the public health response to the pandemic.
