Meet the Doctors: NYMC Sheds Light on Summer Camp Safety

As day camps open for business, parents wonder, is it safe to send my children back to camp?

After months of COVID-19 necessitated quarantine, New York State is slowly reopening for business including camp—leaving parents to decide, is summer camp in the time of COVID-19 safe? To answer this question, on July 1, New York Medical College (NYMC) hosted a free community webinar: Summer Camp: Is It Safe, Yet?  The lecture was part of NYMC’s “Meet the Doctors” series on health-related topics of interest to the community, which provides a venue for participants to learn from health care professionals on subjects ranging topics from Zika, concussions, Autism, family caregiving and the effects of substance abuse in minors.
