Cannabis has been a pain reliever for years, and with increased adult use and legalization, the use of cannabis as medicine has mainstreamed. People living with cancer, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, chronic pain, and other health issues rely on it to ease their symptoms. The talk will focus on helping to better understand the science and use of cannabis as medicine as well as its relevance in the management of symptomatic COVID infection.
