In our inaugural Grand Rounds of the academic year, we will explore the current landscape of the Covid pandemic in the setting of this summer’s uptick in cases. We’ll cover the new booster, today’s variants, and how individuals and institutions should respond to current trends. The session will begin with an epidemiology update by the returning George Rutherford, followed by a panel discussion in which George will be joined by Peter Chin-Hong and Monica Gandhi.
