Starting soon! The inaugural Erin Popovich Honorary Lecture at #CHEST2020!
Dr. Jairo Melo kicking off this inaugural lecture by talking about Erin Popovich and what he learned from her about barriers to Oxygen therapy. #CHEST2020
Dr. Melo: More than 1.5 million adults in the US use supplemental oxygen. Around the world, the growth of oxygen demand will grow exponentially. The impact of COVID on this demand is unclear. #CHEST2020
Dr. Melo: Around the world, oxygen is hard to get. "Even the right to breathe depends on money" #CHEST2020
Rudy Anderson, Executive Director of the @CHESTFoundation, discusses @accpchest outreach, engagement, education and advocacy. #CHEST2020
Anderson: As the wife of NBA Coach Popovich, Erin Popovich had all the resources you might imagine, but still found it incredibly difficult to manage her therapies. The Popovich Endowment will focus on Access and Empowerpoint of Patients. #CHEST2020
Anderson: For more information about the Oxygen Toolkit that the @CHESTFoundation has developed, see foundation.chestnet.org #CHEST2020

@RanaAwdish: Restoration of Identity Post-COVID #CHEST2020 Image
@RanaAwdish: I invite you to step out of our "CHEST" identity and step into the quieter parts of your identity. Loss of any one of these makes you less human. #CHEST2020
@RanaAwdish: Identity is a relational act. Embracing our intersectional identities will benefit our patients. #CHEST2020
