I'm hoping to find a few more sources for a story about what
patients can expect getting a flu shot for the 2020-2021 flu
season. I would love help from experts who can share some
insights about any guidance they're getting from the CDC and how

safer.

I'm also looking for explanations for consumers as to why they
should still get vaccinated during the pandemic even if they're
at home much of the time.

Lastly, I'm interested in hearing any forecasts for the season.
How might the flu complicate care during the pandemic? Will we

mask wearing? Do we know anything about the risk of flu for
people who have or have recovered from COVID-19?

Name: Helena Oliviero The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Category: Biotech and Healthcare

Email: query-b242@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Deadline: 3:00 PM EST - 23 July

Query:

As people face the possibility of a not only the rest of summer
but the fall, and start of school year, devoid of the social
activities, sports and playdates, time playing on a playground
or gathering for a dinner date or girls night out, many are
missing their friends -- and sense of normalcy. One idea that
some families are considering -- do infectious disease
epidemiologists think this may be a smart way to balance mental
health needs with physical safety -- is to create quarantine
"pods" or "bubbles," in which two or three families agree to
socialize with one another but no one else. In a pod, families
hang out together, often without regard to social distancing --
but outside of the pod, they follow recommended social
distancing rules. Others call it a quaran-team with some
gathering only outside, and continuing to maintain social
distancing. The idea of sheltering in place for many is just not
sustainable and many think something has to give especially as
the pandemic stretches from weeks into months to now several
months - at least. Looking to talk to experts (in Georgia
preferably) about how to best navigate this, have you started a
pod or quaran-team, and if so, what kind of conversations do
people need to have to keep everyone safe as possible?

Query:

Our Thought Leaders in Online Education (TLOE) blog is a
follow-up to our highly successful Thought Leaders series (TLBD,
TLCC, TLMS). In TLOE, we interview thought leaders in the
educational technology/online education sectors -- whether they
are entrepreneurs building great companies, product/user
experience designers building great products, deans at colleges
and universities, or executives at large companies with unique
perspectives on how the education industry is evolving. We
discuss trends, disruptions, entrepreneurial opportunities,
monetization models, challenges, socio-cultural impact and much
more in a seven-part series. This blog is part of the One
Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is to help a
million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual revenue. 1M/1M
has syndication relationships with many venues: HBR, Xconomy,
SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India), Women 2.0, Mashable,
Huffington Post, Business Insider, ReadWriteWeb, and several
other sites. Articles we develop through these interviews often
get repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was
named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs) and among the top 100 influencers on
the topic of cloud computing. Sramana Mitra was also named as
one of the top 10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015
(https://goo.gl/AN9TjS). Indicate in your pitch the revenue
level, as we use this as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. Our audience is extremely
sophisticated, so the conversation needs to be equally
interesting.

Query:

I'm writing an article for a major publication about travel
pods, and I was hoping that travel experts could answer the
following questions: - Many families are getting together with
others and forming travel pods. Have you noticed this, and how
do you feel about the trend? - What are the types of vacations
that are well suited for travel pods (home rentals? RVs?
Camping?)? - What should people forming travel pods consider
(how do they decide the type of vacation they should go on?
Should they get tested before they go? ect.). - If you've been
on a travel pod vacation, can you please describe it and tell me
how it went? - What's your full name, title and where are you
based?

Forget intergenerational travel or family reunion get-togethers.
Thanks to corona, families are traveling with their pods: the
same people they've chosen to isolate with for the last few
months. In the story, I'd interview people who have done this/
plan on doing it; I'd also look at the destinations they've

Media Outlet: Syndicated TV Show

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 24 July

Query:

The national travel & lifestyle talk show "The Jet Set" is
seeking destinations (international too) that are still seeking
tourists & travelers AND are taking precautions to lure them.
What are you doing differently to attract travelers? What can
they do once they get there? How can they best prepare for their
trip?

We're looking for destinations with BRoll & a representative we
can talk to via Skype/Zoom/Google on AUGUST 4.
