Upcoming LeadingAge Coronavirus Calls – Mondays and Wednesdays @ 2:30 PM CT 
On Wednesday, December 7th, Dr. Dan Kelly, from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), will join us to discuss their latest study on the impact of vaccines and boosters. Kelly and his team identified 1.6 million people who were fully vaccinated. Three quarters of them were over age 65 and 70% had a pre-existing condition that put them at greater risk of becoming seriously ill from COVID. Even while Delta and Omicron were circulating, these vaccinated and boostered individuals, reported in JAMA, were less likely to experience breakthrough infection and serious illness than those who had not been vaccinated and boostered.  

On Monday, December 12th, Alex Goldstein will join us to talk about @FacesofCOVID, an online initiative that has been cataloging the faces and names of those who died from coronavirus. Goldstein started this forum “…as a way to affirm that these people were are more than a statistic and their lives mattered and they had dignity, and that it meant something.”  

If you haven’t registered for LeadingAge Update Calls, you can do so here. You can also find previous call recordings here. Note that to access recordings of the calls you need a LeadingAge password. Any staff member of any LeadingAge member organization can set up a password to access previous calls and other “members only” content.
