MCN's Podcast
On the Move with MCN, MCN’s podcast, is wrapping up its ten-part series, COVID’s Lasting Impact. Listen to the podcast wherever you listen to podcasts or on the MCN Podcast page. The three most recent episodes provide important information as we approach five years of COVID infections:
Vacunación entre hombres: This Spanish-language episode discusses how health care providers can craft equitable, hyperlocal, and culturally relevant vaccine interventions.
Long COVID: Supporting Patients and Families: This episode, with almost 1000 listens, is one of the most popular of the series. The impact of long COVID is extensive, and this episode expels the many ways COVID can affect patients and their families.
COVID-19 Across a Lifespan: How does COVID impact people differently? This podcast dives into COVID among different populations – particularly underserved, immigrant, and migrant populations – as well as the impact of pre-existing conditions, occupational hazards, and other factors to consider.
Words Matter
Election anxiety is gripping the nation. Migrant Clinicians Network’s Witness to Witness program has run a six-month campaign, Words Matter, on the impact of anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies, including videos, articles, and resources. The culmination of this campaign is a three-part webinar series that is concluding with the webinar, “Post-Election Advocacy and Activism for Clinicians Serving Immigrant and Migrant Patients,” on November 14 at 1pm ET. MCN will also be offering a post-election anxiety resource with regular offerings on MCN’s social media starting November 5th. Access all the resources on https://www.migrantclinician.org/wordsmatter and be sure you are following MCN on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and X (Twitter).
