<p>The CTSA Program’s unique network of leading research centers helps the program respond quickly to urgent public health needs. The network works to swiftly increase scientific knowledge and turn it into health solutions for problems ranging from the opioid epidemic to infectious diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

Moreover, those who were COVID positive did not experience higher rates of harmful effects and mortality than those without COVID-19.
