Commentary
Podcast

On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with Jenny Han, MD, of Emory School of Medicine and Grady Hospital, about COVID-19, long COVID, and strategies for prevention and care.

March 11, 2025, will mark 5 years since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Between January 22, 2020, and March 10, 2023, Johns Hopkins University recorded over 676 million confirmed COVID-19 cases worldwide and more than 6.8 million related deaths. In the US alone, it reported over 103 million cases and more than 1 million deaths during this timeframe.

Although the WHO declared an end to the public health emergency on May 5, 2023, followed by the CDC on May 11, COVID-19 continues to impact thousands of individuals worldwide.

On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we're speaking with Jenny Han, MD, a COVID-19 expert from Emory School of Medicine and Grady Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. We explore the current state of COVID-19, including risk factors, treatments, and the impacts of long COVID. We also discuss prevention strategies, vaccination efforts, and future steps to improve COVID-19 care and outcomes.
