COVID-19 Interest Group

What is the Berkeley CIG?

 

Our purpose is to foster discussions and help our club members understand the science and data relating to COVID-19 especially as it impacts our community. We meet on Mondays at 4PM by Zoom conference calls to discuss topics such as trends in confirmed cases and mortality in the Greater Bay Area, the need for testing and types of tests available, the latest in treatments and progress in clinical trials for vaccines, and the mental health aspects of our new social circumstances.  If you want to join these Monday 4PM zoom calls, contact Tina Etcheverry [email protected].
