Email: query-b2oy@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: HelloGiggles

Deadline: 11:00 AM EST - 28 July

Query:

I'm writing an article on the safest ways to travel during a
pandemic, looking specifically at whether hotels or Airbnbs are
the better option.

Questions will include: * Is there a difference between the
general expectations of safety at a hotel or an Airbnb? * How
does what we currently understand about COVID (transmission,
risk, etc.) impact how travelers should approach a hotel stay or
an Airbnb stay? * What recommendations do you have for
travelers? * Have you / would you travel yourself?

Requirements:

Please send me your credentials + a sample response to one of
the questions above, as well as details on how to get in contact
with you. I would ideally do a phone interview with 2-3 sources,
so please let me know which type of source you could be:

- an epidemiologist - a hotel manager and/or Airbnb manager - a
healthcare policy advisor
