“These are times of unprecedented and unimaginable challenges for our health care system."

The Community Oncology Alliance (COA) will present its annual Community Oncology Conference in a virtual format April 23-24, 2020, to join global efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus).

“These are times of unprecedented and unimaginable challenges for our health care system,” board members said in a letter today. “We have made the obvious decision to cancel the in-person conference.”

The letter said updates on registering for the virtual meeting would be coming shortly.
