Thought Leadership
By Dr. Claudia Mika, CEO Temos International, Diplomatic Council Healthcare Partner
The Covid-19 situation is changing rapidly everywhere and recommendations are changing with similar speed. Numerous organizations provide us with useful information, others distribute false and even dangerous information or offer unethical “business opportunities”. We distance ourselves from those organizations who make the crisis worse instead of contributing to its complete resolution.
The goal of the resources listed below is to provide you with evidence-based information and training opportunities from reliable sources. We will continuously update this page and welcome any suggestions you may have to add further reliable resources to this library.
