Dear fellow CHIFA members,

Please read below for an upcoming webinar about COVID-19 and newborn health. We'll have two presenters and time for Q&A. We hope you can join us

Wednesday April 29 at 9 am EST (1 pm UTC): COVID-19 & newborn health including PSBI scale up

What does COVID-19 mean for newborn health in low & middle income countries? We will also discuss what COVID-19 means for scale up of the

guideline for possible serious bacterial infection (PSBI) for sick young infants when referral is not feasible. Dr. Rajiv Bahl from WHO and Dr. Luwei Pearson from UNICEF will present.
