The sequels to the first webinar will cover the following topic, 'Ultrasound Waves after Second Waves of Infection', with the understanding that the concurrent pandemic is crossing a crucial phase where our healthcare systems will need to adapt and respond.

This section will conclude with a discussion, moderated by me.
