1) Summary: Should Elderberry be a Part of Everyone's Immune Support Regimen?Category: Lifestyle and Fitness
Email: query-b0io@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: Anonymous
Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 15 July
Query:
I am writing an article about the potential benefits of using
elderberry as part of an immune support regimen. I am looking
for medical and integrative professionals who can weigh in on
this topic in a meaningful way.
Here is a list of questions you could choose to answer: How does
elderberry support the immune system? Should everyone
incorporate elderberry into their immune support regimen? Do you
ever recommend elderberry to your patients? (If so, in what form
and dosage?) Do you use elderberry yourself? Would you recommend
children use an elderberry supplement to get them through the
winter? Other potential pitches could be anything you believe is
important to know about elderberry, tips or observations you've
picked up in your research or practice, or anything else you
believe is relevant.
This is a PR friendly post, so be sure to include links to all
of your relevant social media profiles and websites so we can
link to you in the post and share the love once the post goes
live.
Requirements:
Must be a medical professional who has practiced medicine

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 14 July
Query:
The ferocious fight over masks is yet another bizarre feature of
2020. In social media and on the street, people express strong
feelings from either side. But do they really slow viral spread,
or merely amplify panic and division?
Health officials have been back and forth on masks. First
claiming that anything less than a well-fitted N95 mask offered
little to no protection, and later asserting that wearing any
face covering (even a bandana) was an essential tool in
preventing mass casualties. Since then, state mandates have
featured a range of requirements and recommendations about mask
wearing, which customers and employees have been forced to obey.
However, many doctors, nurses, and other health professionals
say constantly covering our mouths and noses does more to hurt
our health than help it.
Meanwhile, masks have become a kind of political statement.
Nobody finds masks comfortable or convenient, but some believe
their sacrifice is saving lives. However, they must confront
others who dare to go mask-less, believing they're standing up
against a tyrannical public health system more interested in
control and submission than people's well-being.
Requirements:
I'm interested in hearing from health care professionals about
how they feel in regard to the validity of mask requirements,
but I'm also interested in hearing from anyone who has a unique
take on this heated topic.
