Give to UCSFUCSF infectious disease expert Charles Chiu, MD, PhD, has been following the disease since its outbreak and provided the latest updates on what science has revealed about how the coronavirus is transmitted, what happens to someone who’s infected, and why a single diagnostic test may not be enough.
The Cancer Center, which opened Feb. 3, 2020, is located in the jointly operated Berkeley Outpatient Center.
UCSF, which specializes in the care of patients with complex illnesses, including infectious diseases like the novel coronavirus, also treated patients during past epidemics, such as SARS in 2003.

The clinics enable patients to receive UCSF primary, specialty and cancer care in convenient locations close to home.
