Educational Campaign — Update May, 2024

We know many people continue to be affected by Covid-19, particularly seniors, people who are immunocompromised, and people with disabilities.

The Covid-19 Public Health Emergency ended in the United States on May 11, 2023. The educational campaign sponsored by the Gateway Medical Society has ended.

The Gateway Medical Society encourages everyone to stay up to date on Covid-19 information by consulting the latest recommendations and guidance by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:

Our educational outreach as part of our Campaign has included:

  • Health Infographics on our Instagram Page
  • Ongoing virtual webinars as a part of our Community Health Symposia
  • Panel discussions on Facebook hosted by 1HOOD media
  • Members speaking on media shows that target a predominately black audience
  • Direct engagement with local Churches tailoring our discussions based on their congregation’s concerns through the Faith Based Health Collaborative
  • Speaking engagements with community organizations tailoring the discussion to the concerns of their Members

As the Pandemic continues to change our healthcare landscape, GMS is committed to providing our community with up-to-date information.

If you or your organization would like to join us in this initiative, please contact us! We look forward to creating new and lasting partnerships that will benefit the community for years to come.
