On March 20, the ADA will release an on-demand webinar offering answers to frequently asked questions about infection control protocol and procedures related to COVID-19. The program, COVID-19 Infection Control Protocols & Procedures, represents a partnership with the Organization for Safety, Asepsis, and Prevention.
Register to receive an email announcing the program’s availability for on-demand viewing late Friday.
