The Communications Network presents Infectious Disease Expert Dr. Wentzel on What to Know and How to Communicate about COVID-19.

The news about the novel coronavirus/COVID-19 is evolving seemingly by the hour.

That makes it difficult to keep up, know what to do, and figure out the role our sector should be playing to equip the public with the facts.

Dr. Richard Wenzel is emeritus Chairman of and Professor at the Department of Internal Medicine at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Medical Center, former President of the Medical College of Virginia (MCV) Physicians, and Editor-at-Large of The New England Journal of Medicine. 

Dr. Wenzel is an epidemiologist and infectious disease expert by training, as well as an author. He will join us Wednesday, March 18 to discuss what to know about COVID-19 and how to talk about it.

We'll cover:

  • What we know and don't know about the COVID-19 pandemic

  • How folks in communications for good can be helpful in a time of great uncertainty and rapidly evolving events

  • Why clear communication from trusted and knowledgeable sources is essential during a public health crisis
