Health care reporters across the world have stepped up to cover COVID-19, and some freelancers have reported that they’re covering “all COVID, all the time.” This webcast features three AHCJ freelancers who have written a variety of stories for different publications. We’ll talk about their experiences and discuss the unique ways that freelancers can adapt during the pandemic, whether they cover COVID-focused news or not. Bring questions!
