Selected Guidelines and Protocols

As the COVID-19 pandemic evolves, more information is being gathered daily and protocols and guidelines are continuously changing. Below you will find protocols and guidelines that may be of interest, however this by no means is a comprehensive list and will continue to change. I personally chose to highlight the following publicly available protocols and guidelines as I find them to be clear, concise, clinically sound and produced by reputable institutions.
