ThyCa St. Louis, MO Support Group
| Meets: |
ThyCa St. Louis meets the third Saturday of every month from 10:00 to 11:30 AM.
Due to the rapidly evolving COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak, we are exercising
an abundance of caution for the well-being of our support group members.
As such, we are canceling all scheduled support group meetings for the
foreseeable future. Having said this, some support groups are holding a
conference call in place of their canceled meeting.
Please take care of yourself. We suggest that you
follow the precautions recommended by your local health agencies and the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
