El Dr. Preston Reynolds informa sobre la subvención de respuesta rápida GIDI Covid-19
HEARR, a través de una subvención presentada y administrada por el Dr. Preson Reynolds de UVa, pudo encuestar a nuestras comunidades sobre cómo Covid-19 ha afectado sus vidas. Esta subvención es una iniciativa del Instituto Global de Enfermedades Infecciosas.

El martes 27 de abril, el Dr. Reynolds presentó los hallazgos de esta encuesta. La sección HEARR del video comienza aproximadamente a los 16 minutos.
