When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the University of Nebraska Medical Center was ready. They had faced Ebola, trained for decades on biocontainment and infectious disease, and had a team of people who had prepared in advance for that moment.
Their experts in biopreparedness faced COVID-19 head on—developing new treatments, testing new ways to use personal protective equipment and providing important research on how the virus spreads. The Medical Center’s foundation of experience and expertise played a key role.
In this episode of Leading Nebraska, we talk with Chris Kratochvil, UNMC’s Global Center for Health Security Distinguished Chair. He discusses the world-renowned infectious disease center and how UNMC is providing solutions needed to face the next pandemic.
