Faculty experts from New York Medical College (NYMC) and the Touro College and University System (TCUS) presented "What Have We Learned? How Can We Use What We Have Learned?" on January 12, the ninth symposium in the series on COVID-19 via a webinar. The symposium largely focused on vaccines. “We are at an interesting touchpoint: a record number of cases, some improvements in therapy vaccines coming on board…and new mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 virus,” said Alan Kadish, M.D., president of TCUS and NYMC. “We are still learning but with the advent of targeted therapy and the advent of vaccine therapies, we are rapidly approaching a point where scientific advances have made a significant therapeutic impact.”
