Just as school is getting back into session, the California Department of Public Health has published new comprehensive Communicable Disease Guidance for Schools. The guidelines, created in collaboration with multiple stakeholders, will be an important resource for clinicians, educators and administrators, and parents.

Join us on September 12, 2023, at 12:00 p.m. for the next installment of the California Medical Association’s Virtual Grand Rounds – New Communicable Disease Guidance for Schools – which will cover the new state guidelines.

Sohil Sud, M.D., a pediatrician who led the creation of these guidelines with the input of multiple stakeholders, will present the guidelines along with several team members. Additionally, California State Epidemiologist Erica Pan, M.D., MPH, will present updates on COVID-19 and the current status of vaccine recommendations for the fall. The free one-hour webinar is open to all interested parties.   

Virtual Grand Rounds: Emerging Public Health Issues is a free and monthly series providing the latest patient management news and resources. The effort is a partnership between CMA and the California Health and Human Services Agency, with the California Academy of Physician Assistants and the Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons of California.

If you are unable to attend the live event, it will be available for on-demand playback at cmadocs.org/grandrounds.
