Biotech and Healthcare

1) Summary: Teletherapy: What are the Top Reasons to Try Virtual Therapy or Telehealth for Mental Healthcare?

Name: Jennifer Larson Locum Leaders

Category: Biotech and Healthcare

Email: query-bqif@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Locum Leaders

Deadline: 8:00 PM EST - 7 January

Query:

When the coronavirus pandemic began in 2020, many professions
pivoted to begin adding telehealth visits to their offerings, in
order to meet their patients' needs. In some cases, telehealth
was already an option, but it became much more popular when the
pandemic began.

Now, as we enter 2021, telehealth continues to be a popular
option, including telehealth for mental healthcare. We want to
explore some of the reasons that a patient might want to try
teletherapy or telehealth for their care for issues like
depression, anxiety, etc..

Providers and mental healthcare experts, what are those reasons
that a patient might want to try virtual therapy? And what are
the caveats that they should also consider?

Additionally, what perspective have you gained by providing
telehealth care to your patients that you could share with other
providers? What have you learned from the process, what works,
what have you had to tinker with, and how will you approach
telehealth going forward?

Requirements:

Please contact me through HARO or via email at
larson_jennifer@yahoo.com if you or someone you represent would
like to comment.

Name: Jennifer Larson The Check Up

Category: Biotech and Healthcare

Email: query-bqmz@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: The Check Up

Deadline: 9:00 PM EST - 5 January

Query:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approved generic
glucagon. This is the first drug used to treat severe
hypoglycemia that has gotten generic approval in the U.S.

I'm writing a news article for the The Check Up blog, owned by
SingleCare, about this news and what it means. I'd like to get
some responses from people who work with people who have
diabetes about the significance of this approval and what it
will mean for their patients. Or, I'm interested in hearing from
people who have diabetes and use glucagon; will this approval
help you out, and if so, how?

The article will appear here: https://www.singlecare.com/blog/

Requirements:

If you're available and willing to comment, please contact me
through HARO or via email at larson_jennifer@yahoo.com with your
responses. This is a very quick turnaround piece, since the FDA
issued its approval on Dec. 28, and we want to get our piece
posted ASAP.

Category: Biotech and Healthcare

Email: query-bqnh@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Best Life Online

Deadline: 5:00 PM EST - 5 January

Query:

Hi all! I have read that doctors are recommending people don't
take acetaminophen or ibuprofen before getting the vaccine
because no one has studied whether it could impair the immune
response (although they don't seem to think it would). I'd love
to hear insight from experts on why these OTC drugs should be
avoided before getting the vaccine. Do other vaccines interact
with these drugs? I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

13) Summary: Big Purchases You Should Make Soon

Name: Nicole Spector Yahoo Finance

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bqpc@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Yahoo Finance

Deadline: 3:00 PM EST - 5 January

Query:

For GOBankingRates, syndicated with Yahoo Finance, I am writing
a piece about making big financial purchases when the future is
so hard to navigate (mainly because of the pandemic). I am
looking to cite OBJECTIVE FINANCIAL & RETAIL EXPERTS ONLY on
what is a worthwhile buy right now.

For example: Many people book big vacations for the year well in
advance. Airlines are offering big travel deals for the later in
the year. So, in context, is it worth the risk to pay now for an
October vacation, even though we're not 100 percent sure what
will happen with COVID?

I am looking for an answer to that question, but also for more
examples. Like, is now the time to buy new car if yours is on
the way out, perhaps because we see good car sales in Jan?

In other words, what BIG investments are worth the risk to buy
this month? How much might you end up saving in the long run?

To submit, please send: 1. Your name, title and your pronouns
with a link to your site 2. Your suggestion of what to buy now
3. Around how much it costs 4. Why it is worth the risk 5. How
much you might save now versus if you wait to buy it later.

Thank you so much. I assure you I will fully credit you with
your company if I can quote you --- and I will certainly TRY to
quote you!

23) Summary: Growing While Remote w/ the Help of Tech

Name: Calvin Hennick BizTech

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bqil@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: BizTech

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 11 January

Query:

Feature: Growing While Remote Expanded remote work is here to
stay. Even though businesses are starting to cautiously reopen
offices, the benefits of remote work to businesses -- lower
costs, happier and possibly more productive employees and the
ability to recruit talent everywhere -- are too great for
businesses to ignore. But transitioning existing employees to
home offices is one thing; onboarding new employees who will
work remotely from the start is another. These workers need to
be trained and incorporated into office culture, even as they
also need company-issued endpoints. How can tech help
organizations grow in virtual environments? What about hybrid
environments where entire workforces might be in the office
part-time on different days? What are the tech-management
considerations of long-term remote-work and hybrid environments?
Businesses need equipment -- endpoints, collaboration tech and
security -- but they also need to think about how these
technologies might be used differently than before.

Requirements:

I'm looking to speak with IT sources at U.S.-based nonprofits
about how tech has helped support their organizations' growth
during the time of remote work. The tech can be almost anything
(datacenter infrastructure, user devices, networking refreshes).
We're not really looking to highlight small, standalone software
offerings, although we could feature big collaboration techs
like Zoom, Webex, and Teams. I'm happy to have vendors put me in
touch with sources, but please note that I can NOT user quotes
from vendors, aggregators, or IT consultants in this article. I
also cannot feature organizations in healthcare, education, or
government. Thanks!

Query:

Hello. My name is Erik Martin and I am a reporter for HomeStyle,
a nationally syndicated home improvement/design section
published weekly in newspapers across the country (visit
https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures for samples). I'm looking to
interview DIY experts, remodelers, home improvement
professionals, interior designers, and other
professionals/experts for the following story:

Why you're more likely to DIY this year and beyond. A fresh
study by Craftsman found that 3 out of 4 Americans built up
their home improvement skills in 2020 (details at
https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/3-out-of-4-americans-built-up-their-home-improvement-skills-in-2020-craftsman-builthome-survey-finds-301183479.html).
Among the report's other findings: more than 1 in 5 Americans
learned to use a drill for the first time during COVID-19; since
the onset of the pandemic, two-thirds of Americans (65%) report
their households have had more time for home improvement
projects, but most (60%) wish they had more home renovation
know-how; and for many Americans (25%), home improvement
activities have become a way to spend quality time with family.
This story will mention these and other findings and provide
commentary from experts as to why more homeowners are building
DIY skills and confidence, and how this can pave the way to
greater satisfaction with future home improvement projects.
Below is a list of questions I'm seeking answers to. I can only
accept written responses via email. My deadline is noon central,
Friday, January 8, 2021.

QUESTIONS: 1. What did you find interesting or surprising about
any of the previously mentioned study results and why? 2. Why
are homeowners more likely to increase their DIY activity in
2021 versus last year? What factors are behind these possible
trends? 3. What is it about the lingering pandemic that has
benefited homeowners and improved their DIY skills to any
extent? Are there any other factors that have led to increased
DIY home improvement activity? 4. Why is it a good idea,
overall, for homeowners to increase their home improvement
skills and aim for enhanced DIY know-how? How can this save them
money and build their confidence? 5. What can/should homeowners
be doing, specifically, at minimum to ensure they can handle at
least basic DIY home improvement/maintenance/repair tasks? What
do you recommend here and why? 6. Any other thoughts, tips, or
suggestions on this topic? 7. What is your full name, title,
company, city/state location, and email address?

QUESTIONS: 1. Why is it important for parents and their

not need a car on campus and will not be driving while away from
home? Should their coverage be put on hold? How does this work,
especially if they want to come home on break and drive? Will
this move save money on car insurance in any way? 4. What
can/should families do when their student needs a car on campus
and plans to drive while away from home? What should they expect
here, especially when it comes to how this may change or
increase car insurance premiums? 5. What about if your child
plans to live at home while attending college but they still
plan on driving - should you expect your premiums to go up in
any way, just because they are now a college student or
otherwise? 6. Overall, what options can families choose from in
either scenario asked about in questions number three and four
above? 7. Is it ever better to shop for a separate policy from a
separate insurance company for your college student, or is it
almost always best to get them a policy with your existing
insurance company? Please explain. 8. What is a student away at
school discount? How does this work, and who qualifies? What
kind of a discount (percentagewise) can this yield, on
average/usually? 9. Are there any other possible ways for you
and your child to save money on car insurance while they are
away at college? Anything else to consider? 10. Any other
thoughts, tips, or suggestions on this topic? 11. What is your

Query:

I generally have a secure-avoidant attachment style. But in
certain circumstances, I get disorganized. It took me a while to
get hip to what was happening for me because I do long
identified as S-A. But once I accepted my sometimes tendency to
become disorganized, it felt really empowering, like at least I
know what's happening (or think I do). Also, I feel like it
gave me language to understand and a framework for "getting
organized." But a lot of the things I've read in the mainstream
media don't even mention disorganized attachment, or when they
do, it feels somehow like this is "bad" attachment. From my
experience, though, a lot of people vary in their attachment
style and disorganized just seems like it requires a different
path to security. Am I wrong? I am looking for a psychologist
who can riff on this in a conversational way for millennial
readers who want to have healthy relationships and are
interested in attachment styles as a framework for
understanding. And go!
