COVID-19 Clinical Resources

While working on clinical content (decision, documentation and inquiry supports) relevant to COVID-19, we come across high-quality evidence repositories. Knowledge evolves quickly, with new insights and analyses daily. The following list is selective, partial and medicine-biased.

Please see the COVID-19 Content page for information about ordering, documenting and other tools designed specifically with COVID-19 in mind, and the COVID-19 Workflows page for ideas about how to integrate this content into workflows that support care of patients with COVID-19 illness.
