This is very good! Any attempts to provide this in different languages to get a broader outreach of the guidelines to an international patient population?
Interested in a transplant recipient facing education tool about CMV? We developed this as a spinoff from the fourth international consensus CMV guidelines. Thank you to @Kamada_Pharma and @Lavyshai for support and development.
