COVID-19 has impacted economies, communities, and lives around the world. As new information on transmission, prevention strategies, and treatment is developing in real time, NAM members are conducting, publishing, and funding research to understand the long-term effects of COVID-19 and develop a safe and effective vaccine against the virus. They are treating patients and developing clinical guidelines to improve care quality and access, roll out and support telemedicine services, and diagnose cases of COVID-19. NAM members have been communicating with the general public, policy makers, and media to dispel misinformation and provide updates on the global response to the pandemic.
