While representational diversity may be tracked, inclusion can be harder to assess. As hospitalists engage in DEIJ efforts, it is important to understand what ‘success’ in inclusion looks like. We sought […]

Monoclonal antibodies (Mab) decrease hospitalization when given to ambulatory non-severe high-risk patients within 10 day of symptom onset. Disparities in care related to Mabs are not well understood. We describe experience from Mab infusion […]
