En respuesta a la pandemia actual del COVID-19 (Coronavirus), el equipo del estudio ANCHOR ha aconsejado al personal local a que se comunique con los participantes del estudio que ya tienen cita programada durante las próximas 4 semanas para determinar si uno debe acudir a la clínica, o no. Si no recibes noticia del personal clínico de tu local, favor de contactarlos. Si estás en espera de la visita de evaluación, te agradecemos tu paciencia. Sí te atenderemos tan pronto como sea posible, una vez que sea seguro hacerlo. Mientras tanto, puedes comunicarte con tu clínica local del estudio ANCHOR si tienes alguna duda o inquietud.
Louis Zimmerman, In Memoriam
February 7, 2017
Dear ANCHOR CAB Members,
It is with a heavy heart we must inform you our fellow CAB member and Co-chair Louis Zimmerman has passed away. He died peacefully at home after a short illness.
Louis has been an integral part of HIV research as both a community members and study volunteer. His thoughtfulness and passion will be missed by all of his friends and colleagues.
On a personal note, I've had the pleasure of working with Louis as Co-Chair. I remember him most for his cheerful disposition and his sense of calm and joy.
He is survived by his partner Pete Trujillo. There will be a memorial service for Louis on Monday, February 13th, 2017 at:
Heartlight Center
11150 E. Dartmouth Ave
Aurora, CO 80014
Receiving hours are from 2pm-3pm, with the memorial service starting at 3pm.
We will be sending flowers and a sympathy card on behalf of the CAB. If you feel so inclined, you can send something personally as well.
All the best,
Fred Mazyck
ANCHOR CAB Co-Chair
