Coronavirus (COVID-19): What Can You Do?

To meet the needs of families during the current COVID-19 pandemic, we created a supplementary module, Coronavirus (COVID-19): What Can You Do?, to provide more information about newborn screening during the pandemic and steps families can take to stay healthy and informed.

This module will provide families with information about: 

• Why newborn screening is an important service for babies even during a pandemic
• What to expect in newborn screening during the COVID-19 pandemic 
• How to follow up on newborn screening safely
• Where to find resources for more information and updates
