Today we will explore our exciting new publication that examines the timing of surgery after SARS-CoV-2 infection. 

With us today we have Joana Simoes, Dmitri Nepogodiev and Aneel Bhangu who are co-authors of the paper. They were interviewed by Ben Morton, who is an Editor of Anaesthesia. The authors are representatives from the NIHR Global Health Research Unit on Global Surgery, a collaborative team who authored this piece.

This multi-cente, multi-country prospective cohort study examined the risk of death after surgery following an episode of SARS-CoV-2 infection. We, at the journal, felt that the findings are highly clinically relevant and are extremely pleased that the team has agreed to this live broadcast to discuss their findings.
