IAS-USA Dialogue Series: Emerging Infections and Health Threats

IAS–USA Dialogues are spirited, timely conversations on the public health, scientific, and clinical aspects of current urgent outbreaks, including seasonal viruses such as influenza, emerging infectious disease threats in the US and around the world, controversies surrounding trustworthy guidance on vaccinations, and other topics of the day. Registration is now open for our December event!

Program Description

Experts discuss current “hot-button” issues and answer audience questions. The conversations are available on-demand and in podcast format after broadcast on the IAS−USA website, with the warning that the shelf life of information on urgent outbreaks is often quickly outdated as scientific knowledge evolves. What we know today may well be different from what we know tomorrow. A wide range of topics may be covered, such as:

• Emerging US health threats: diseases that were once considered non-endemic in the US—such as plague, chikungunya, Chagas, leishmaniasis, malaria, and dengue—are appearing with increasing frequency
• Vaccination controversies: where can clinicians find trustworthy sources on current best practices?
• Measles outbreaks, which are spurring debate about whether previously vaccinated adults need an MMR booster
• Pertussis, mpox, and more

The Dialogue series is intended for health care clinicians and researchers, including infectious diseases and HIV specialists.

CME credit is not available for IAS–USA Dialogues.
