COVID19 impact on women on both sides of the frontline: The American College of Cardiology Women in Cardiology Section’s International Working Group perspective

Abstract

At the beginning of the SARS Co V2 (COVID-19) pandemic, women worldwide represented the majority of health care workers. As part of the fight against the pandemic, women health care workers became a part of the significant frontline response. This led to unique challenges that affected women physicians as well as the women patients they were taking care of. The American College of Cardiology Women in Cardiology International Working Group set up a webinar to discuss the challenges being faced by women physicians and women patients in various parts of the world and look towards finding possible solutions for these issues in a webinar themed ?WIC Global Perspectives: COVID-19.?
