Bruce Gelb, a transplant surgeon in New York City, contracted COVID in early March 2020.

The speaker will discuss his personal experiences, and how health systems and governments have variably addressed the pandemic, global healthcare challenges in managing a rapidly spreading new disease, strategies for managing shortages of resource and human expertise, disparities in the ability to provide and deliver care, and the pandemic’s impact on patients suffering from non-COVID medical conditions.
