Topics discussed will range from everyday challenges (e.g., application of Transmission-Based Precautions) to longstanding seasonal challenges (e.g., implementing visitor restrictions) to preparing for tomorrow’s potential threats (e.g., H5N1 preparedness). Don’t miss this opportunity to join the discussion with your colleagues in SHEA and PIDS.
