Abstract
As the global COVID-19 pandemic unfolds, new cases that are being identified in clinical settings are having an impact on the way in which therapeutics for COVID-19 are being developed.
In this presentation, we will discuss the recent data on patient demographics, infection rates and symptoms, and what the implications are for how we might treat people with COVID-19 infection.
