Welcome to the #BigSick20 landing page.
You’ll find most of the lecture content here for free.
We have left up the live streams for those who want to share or rewatch the talks. Live is rarely perfect, please forgive some feed issues here and there including less than perfect audio.
Parts of the airway session and all of the trauma session is missing because the conference venue had issues with internet upload speeds. Also, a few speakers declined to be live streamed.
We will release the talks including the missing ones in a more polished version if and when time allows.
