In this episode we welcome Kristin Urquiza of Marked By COVID who shares the work she and her organization have partcipated in for COVID Memorial Day and commemorating the over 1 million lives lost in the United States alone due to COVID.

We also discuss COVID policy needs, health equity issues, and the opportunities available for advocacy and activism to bring awareness to the fact that COVID is still here, it is airborne, and we are at the beginning of dealing with the increase in long COVID and mental health challenges resulting from the pandemic.
