COVID-19, COPD and You: Important Strategies from Leading Medical Experts on Managing Your Health

The COPD Foundation wants you to know you are not alone during this time.

On March 17th, we hosted a webinar that provided updated medical information about managing your chronic obstructive pulmonary disease during the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic.

This webinar featured leading medical and public health experts including Dr. Josh Sharfstein from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Dr. Robert Wise of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and Dr. Byron Thomashow from Columbia University/New York-Presbyterian Hospital, along with COPD Foundation staff members, Stephanie Williams and Jamie Sullivan.

The speakers addressed the most common questions we received about the coronavirus and COVID-19, including what we know and don't know about the disease, signs, and symptoms people with COPD should watch, practical action to prevent the disease, tips for maintaining your emotional well-being and resources for credible information.

You can now access the recording of the webinar from your computer, tablet or smartphone. You will be asked to enter your name and email address to join. If you are unable to access the recording on your device, please contact statecaptains@copdfoundation.org for assistance.
