GHLF”™s digital platform provides educational and support resources, along with state-specific resources to help people access local information.
“The trending hashtag #HighRiskCOVID19, created by several of our patient advocates with our support, emphasizes that people living with serious and chronic conditions are at heightened risk for contracting and being susceptible to complications from COVID-19,” Ginsberg added. “We welcome all groups to take advantage of this platform.”
