Social Media and Advocacy Materials
Your voice is powerful. One way to effect change is by sharing your story on social media and in advocacy materials. This section gives you space to detail your experiences during the pandemic and why you support mask requirements in healthcare. There are many different prompts. Feel free to pick and choose the ones to answer based on your available time/energy and what you find most compelling.

By filling out this form, you give permission for COVID Safe MD to use the information you share in social media and advocacy materials for COVID protections in healthcare settings and contact you at the provided email address if needed for any clarifications. Stories may also be edited for length and clarity, but we will never change the substance of your message.  Please refrain from including specific names of doctors and/or health institutions in your responses.

We appreciate the time and energy that you are putting in to responding to our questions. COVID Safe MD will work to share as many stories as possible within the capacity of our team.
