 COVID-19 & racism 

Viruses don't discriminate and neither should we.

It's important that we increase awareness that the disease is linked to a geographic location and not to a race or nationality.

Telehealth response in Colorado

Colorado urgently needs medical professionals and administrators to donate their time to provide free telehealth visits. This work will be performed entirely from home, primarily via telephone and/or video calls. Callers will provide their symptoms over the phone, and those who need medical attention will be triaged to a queue for telephone-based care.
