This week, we're going to hear from 3 experts on very different aspects of COVID-19 and MS.
Kathy Costello, the Associate Vice-President of Healthcare Access for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is going to give us our weekly update on COVID-19 and MS.
Mandy Rohrig, a physical therapist who specializes in the rehabilitation of people with Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. is going to talk to us about exercises that you can do at home to stay healthy.
And then you'll meet Nancy Guerrera. Nancy is a registered nurse who was diagnosed with MS in 2007. And last month, Nancy was diagnosed with COVID-19. We'll hear exactly what it's been like for someone living with MS to contract COVID-19 after being on Ocrevus for the past 3 years.
We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
