WDO Webinar 1: COVID-19 and DMD/BMD

This Saturday, the World Duchenne Organization hosted a webinar to facilitate the questions to clinicians on the current novel Coronavirus or COVID-19 outbreak and how this affects the Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy community. We have collected the frequently asked questions and have clustered them. Then we asked DMD experts to provide their input.
