Nature for the win! Thank you Ms. Collins!

hello everyone. Try smelling some flowers daily, Magnolias and crepe myrtle trees are everywhere. This brings me immediate centering and stress relief.

Dr. Sheppard is addressing a question from the registration form: Why, biologically, is there such a huge disparity in the impact of the virus?

We’re answering “What are physiological impacts of long-time mask wearing?” - Do any of you have other comments or questions regarding the effectiveness of PPE?

why do I feel dizzy after a day of wearing the mask?

Thank you so much for answering my questions, Dr. Sheppard. Your explanations were so helpful.

thank you Dr. Sheppard

AGES 11 - 13 - Tuesdays (starting June 16th)AGES 14 - 18 - Thursdays (starting June 18th)To ensure that all participants feel comfortable in this space we are requiring caretakers to fill out a registration form for each participant. This will ensure that we know who is in each session and it reduces the risk of any unplanned interruptions. After the consent form is received we will provide the Zoom link and some tips for a successful Wellness Warriors session. After attending their first meeting, we’ll send links to them weekly via their preferred communication mode, but they don’t have to attend every group, they can come and go as they please! If you have any other questions, please email us at wellnesswarriors@iwesnola.org.

should we stay masked until a vaccine? what about after the vaccine?

Can someone speak on the controversy with the inaccuracy of the antibody test?

Question that sparked this discussion: How will the medical community gain trust from black community post COVID ?

Barbara mentions St Thomas Clinic they are trustable…How about supporting them to do some outreach?

Thank you for your honesty Dr. Sheppard
