As workforce re-entry begins, achieving the goals of both economic and public health are foremost on the minds of employers.  Join the Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce and Dr. Mark Newton on Thursday, May 7 for an informative webinar regarding the path to public and economic health.  Learn more about the evolution, capacity and goals of COVID-19 testing as a tool to minimize employer and worker risk and balanced state policy that can ensure a successful road towards economic recovery.  

State Representative Dr. Mark Newton serves Georgia’s District 123 and is CEO of MedNow Urgent Care.  Dr. Newton will discuss the outlook for COVID-19 testing and its potential role as workers return to work.  As a member of Governor Brian Kemp’s Coronavirus Task Force for the Primary Care Provider Committee, Dr. Newton will also provide perspective on the role of state leaders to measure the existing and future economic impacts of the pandemic and how Georgia will best recover.
