MaskTogetherAmerica Founder Julie Lam featured on PBS NewsHour
PBS News Covers the Plight of Those Left Behind in the Move to “Move On” from COVID
Sixty one million adults in the US are living with a disability. CDC is aware of this, yet it dropped isolation for infected patients, making public spaces, schools, and workplaces unsafe and inaccessible. PBS gave some of those 61 million adults a chance to speak out!
Andrew Corkery featured MaskTogetherAmerica founder Julie Lam and other disabled and immunocompromised people in a recent segment of PBS NewsHour. Julie and fellow community members opened up about the struggles they face trying to avoid COVID, what it feels like to be left behind, and what those around them can do to help.
We hope the PBS story will inspire more people to protect each other and support awareness. It’s up to us to care about other people!
