Flu Fighters
During this season of heightened vigilance against the novel Coronavirus, the health and safety of our delegates and participants attending the 7th SG-ANZICS 2020 are our foremost priorities.
Currently the Forum is continuing as planned, but we are monitoring the situation very closely and observing all relevant health and travel advisories. As the situation continues to evolve, we will have a clearer direction in the coming weeks.
In view of this, the announcement of the abstract results will be postponed to 14 Feb 2020.
In the meantime, to all our friends in the critical care community, stay safe and let’s conquer this!
