Extension hosts COVID-19 discussions

Montana State University Extension will host a series of webinars this fall related to COVID-19. “COVID-19 Conversations with Montana Experts” will take place from noon to 1 p.m. on four separate Tuesdays, November 2, 16 and 30 and December 14. They are free and open to the public.

The webinar series will feature doctors, researchers and other health care experts from across the state discussing topics such as virology, immunization research, lab testing, health communication, vaccine hesitancy and other public health topics. According to webinar organizers, the goal of the series is to provide Montanans with access to accurate and timely information about COVID-19 to help them make informed decisions.

The first webinar, “How Vaccines Work,” will feature Andrea Marzi of Rocky Mountain Labs, a National Institutes of Health biomedical research facility in Hamilton.

Registration is not required but registering will give attendees a reminder email the day before each webinar. For more information and to register visit msuextension.org.
