Providing accurate information to the public is more important than ever in this moment of uncertainty. Hear a panel of infectious disease experts and a journalist explain what is known\, what to watch out for\, where to find trusted resources and how to combat misinformation and confusion. \n\n\nMaryn McKenna\, independent journalist\, author; Senior Fellow of the Center for the Study of Human Health at Emory University \n\n\nSaskia Popescu\, senior infection preventionist\, ELBI Fellow and managing editor; HonorHealth\, Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security\, Pandora Report \n\n\nAngie Rasmussen\, Ph.D.\, Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health\, Associate Research Scientist \n\n\nModerator: Bara Vaida\, AHCJ core topic leader/infectious diseases \n\n\nSaskia Popescu is an experienced infectious disease epidemiologist and infection preventionist with a strong background in project management\, translation of complex issues into frontline applications\, and enhancing healthcare biopreparedness.
