While you are Praying for Laura - PLEASE pray for Christell Cadet. She is a NYC paramedic on a ventilator fighting for her life against coronavirus. #CoronaVirusNYC #COVID19

Here's the result of several convos w/ medical professionals who went out on a limb to speak to us.

Under-counting is partly a lag in reporting data on COVID-19 tests and deaths, partly because a lot of ppl just aren't being tested.

@KaitlynRubbo @MaeveJ2 I think longterm, celebrities will truly understand the power of their voice #CM203

[Maeve O'Brien @MaeveJ2]

#CM203... interesting. Also an example of a 'celeb' who uses his platform to share his opinion regarding COVID19, and how accurate was that? 😬😬@Ellethegreatwh1 @KaitlynRubbo

[Maeve O'Brien @MaeveJ2]

@Ellethegreatwh1 @KaitlynRubbo Agreed. They will understand it's power, and hopefully the right way to use it. #CM203

@Seancarey31 @Katrinabana #CM203 @Seancarey31 @Katrinabana For sure celebrities are being way more active on social media during this time.

@KaitlynRubbo @MaeveJ2 I also think Alison Jackson sort of did the same thing with her photography of Queen Diane #CM203

@Ellethegreatwh1 @KaitlynRubbo “It’s very easy for creative voices to get lost in platforms riddled with ads and unimportant content; we’re hoping to eradicate these, providing a focused, industry specific platform.” #Empowerment #CM203

@MaeveJ2 @KaitlynRubbo I definitely think some may spread false information! I guess we should hope the majority of celebrities have a moral compass and only broadcast what is good for the public! #CM203

[Ellethegreatwhiteshark @Ellethegreatwh1]

@MaeveJ2 @KaitlynRubbo This reminds me of Maisie Williams TedTalk. She reshaped her fame into something positive by creating an app! #CM203

[Becca Stone @becksstone]

@mikeyshirley22 @SSchell15 I agree, now with Tik Tok and YouTube there are a ton of creators with over a million followers which a few years ago was a difficult milestone to reach #CM203

[Maeve O'Brien @MaeveJ2]

@KaitlynRubbo @Ellethegreatwh1 Just because celebs have the platform and a powerful voice, doesn't always guarantee that they will use it wisely. Do you think it's possible for celebs to take advantage of their voice, and spread false news? #CM203

[Maeve O'Brien @MaeveJ2]

@KaitlynRubbo @Ellethegreatwh1 Great point. Just because celebs have the platform, doesn't mean normal people don't the opp. to be spreading good messages and examples. #CM203

[Sony @SSchell15]

@mikeyshirley22 @becksstone I agree !! I think this also really connects with @becksstone’s perspective
#CM203

[Becca Stone @becksstone]

@SSchell15 @mikeyshirley22 I agree that once life goes "back to normal" there will be expectations fans will have for celebrities that cant be fulfilled since they would have to go back to their busy lifestyle. Do you think the idea of who can be a celebrity will change? #CM203

[Mikey Shirley @mikeyshirley22]

@becksstone @SSchell15 I have been seeing many new influencers that have managed to have success through these social media platforms and are actually considered famous. This is interesting because it shows that with modern technology anybody can do what they dream of. #cm203

[Ellethegreatwhiteshark @Ellethegreatwh1]

@KaitlynRubbo @MaeveJ2 I couldn’t agree more. Do you think this is reshaping what it means to be a celebrity? #cm203
