New ASRM Guidelines on Covid But Many Disagree

The Coronavirus (Covid-19) Summit gives practitioners around the world a forum to debate the issues facing us in real time:
unfiltered, unrestricted, open discussion

Some IVF centers never closed and we are wrestling with what to do.

On April 9th, The NY Governor's executive order designated fertility services as “essential.” On April 13 ASRM released updated, but unchanged, guidance.

What does this mean for practitioners in the rest of the United States and around the world?

Nearly 2,000 REIs joined us for the discussion. But now the discussion must continue. Join us for a practical, honest look at where we are now, and how we can figure out when to safely start treating our patients again.

An intro from the President's representative to the Covid Task Force
The rationale for the ASRM guidelines from members of the task force
A view from leading practices who stayed open and why
View from the President of the Italian Fertility Society who closed
View from the Head of Ob for China on how they handled region by region
and much much more...

Lessons from the Front Lines: China Italy & NY (Session 1)

Wuhan, China is one month ahead of Brescia, Italy. Brescia is one month ahead of New York City. New York is one month ahead of the interior of the United States. We have a rare opportunity to learn from the practitioners who were first confronted with this pandemic.

Our Ob Gyn colleagues in China and Italy will candidly share their story of what has happened to devastate their country. And New York physicians will describe what is going on now. These front line physicians will share their hard-won secrets for how to safely treat Covid-19 patients, how to beat the virus and how American doctors can protect themselves and their families.

PATIENT EVENT: THE COVID-19 FERTILITY DILEMMA: KEEPING POSITIVE WHILE YOU PAUSE (Session 3)

This Summit is the first just for fertility patients. People who suffer from infertility have been thrown into a terrible medical bind by the Covid-19 pandemic. ASRM recently released guidelines that halted all infertility treatments in the United States.

In this groundbreaking event patient's themselves speak up and help policy makers understand the issues from the patient’s perspective, and come together to find a way through the Covid fertility crisis.
