Coronavirus and Sickle Cell Live Q&A – 15th May 2020

The Sickle Cell Society’s first Coronavirus (COVID-19) and Sickle Cell Live Q&A took place on Friday 15th May 2020 at 3pm-4pm. It was attended by people from across the country who asked questions around sickle cell and coronavirus to our expert panel.

The panel consisted of John James OBE (Chief Executive of the Sickle Cell Society) and June Okochi (Head Of Program Management at NHS West Essex CCG, and Lead Mentor of SCS Mentoring Programme).

Unfortunately we had some technical issues so other panel members Professor David Rees (Consultant Paediatric Haematologist and SCS Medical Adviser) and Dr Kofi Anie (Consultant Psychologist and SCS Medical Adviser) were not able to join us. The is the first of the a series of Live Q&As. More information about other events can be found here: https://www.sicklecellsociety.org/liveqanda/
