We are excited with the news that our fellows in training have won the first round of the jeopardy. ACC National Competition and will be moving on to the 2nd round of competition. They are led by the one and only Dr. Hilton Franqui; current Cardiovascular Program Director for the University Hospital Fellowship, master of Jeopardy competition in local forums for many years and a member of the Board for the ACC Puerto Rico Chapter. We will continue to support current and future endeavors for our fellows as they are the bright future for continued enthusiasm and learning in Puerto Rico. My congratulations to all the attending physicians that continue to support training programs around the country.

El Colegio Americano de Cardiología, capítulo de Puerto Rico (ACC-PR) no se solidariza con las expresiones vertidas por la señora Cecilia Furlán, en representación del grupo “Médicos por la Verdad Puerto Rico”. Furlán, quien según sus expresiones no es médico de profesión, ha estado brindando información que conduce a error y confusión, sobre la verdad de la pandemia de coronavirus; específicamente sobre su diagnóstico, manejo de salud pública sobre la protección y recomendaciones para evitar el contagio.
El capítulo de Puerto Rico del Colegio Americano de Cardiología avala la información oficial, basada en las guías del Colegio Americano de Cardiología y recomendaciones de las agencias federales que incluye el Centro de para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC), Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos de los Estados Unidos (FDA) y Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS).
