Evolving World of COVID and Cancer
In this video series, GRACE Board Members Dr. H. Jack West, Dr. Jared Weiss, and Dr. Ben Levy have continued candid discussions regarding cancer and COVID-19.

In this continued time of social distancing and limiting clinic exposure, the doctors sat down to virtually discuss some of the questions we all hear regarding these unprecedented times, and how they affect primarily cancer patients.

In this video, the discussion is surrounding the variable acceptance of the COVID19 vaccine. 

Thanks to #Exelixis and #Merck for their support of this program.
