CVU mini – Friday 21 June 2024 (postponed)

Due to overlap and parallels with other upcoming RSV events, we are postponing RSV presentations until our October CVU and will no longer be holding a separate CVU mini on 21 June 2024.

MVEC’s CVU mini was planned to be on the topic of RSV preventative therapies, offering healthcare professionals the opportunity to hear from leading experts on the latest in RSV prevention.
