I've created a thread that summarizes the statements from the #IOIBD global expert panel about management of #IBD during #COVID19. This is because the meeting summary of _appropriateness_ statements is being a bit misunderstood.

Every infusion center should have protocols.
▶️Screening before and when you arrive.
▶️Temp checks.
▶️Masks, clean gloves.
▶️Adequate distance between chairs.
▶️Single nurse for a patient.
Home infusions are in my opinion much riskier! Nurse going house to car to house. – at Chicago, IL

A great thread from @BrennanSpiegel. This is what I mentioned on the @CrohnsColitisFn Facebook Live event.
▶️ACE2 receptors (mode of entry for SARS-CoV-2) present in sm bowel
▶️SARS-CoV-2 detectable in stool
▶️Reasonable to think that fecal spread occurs
▶️WASH YOUR HANDS! ✋🤚
Evolving #COVID19 data, please share: Could COVID19 spread through stool? In this thread, I will summarize what our editorial team at #AmJGastro knows about the risk of fecal spread. I will start by emphasizing that we do *not* yet know, for sure, if it spreads though... (1/10)

So it begins. We’ve launched NICA’s Minimum Standards for in-office infusion on the eve of our inaugural meeting. Neither of which would have been possible without the individuals in this photo. Thank you, Advisory Committee members! It’s going to be a great weekend! #NICA2019

Wise words from @BryonyEHopkins: "After years of crying after someone stared at me for longer than was comfortable, I finally realized the only person causing myself more heartache was myself." metro.co.uk/2018/06/27/model… #IBD #Crohns #UlcerativeColitis

Men with lupus have a more complex clinical course than women. Some studies have shown that kidney failure, central nervous system and vascular diseases are more common in men when compared to women. #LupusFactFriday #MensHealthMonth
