As part of the University of Toronto’s COVID-19 engagement project, Pandemos
is a team of undergrad students from across Canada and America in an initiative aimed at combating untrue information regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. We have two main goals - distribute true information on a regular basis and answer public questions. Primarily, we provide people with the latest accurate information on the pandemic, spread of the virus, control methods, impacts on life, advances in the academic field and various news stories through our social media, website, and newsletters. Our second goal is to provide a platform from which we can connect the public to experts. This is in the form of a Public Q&A portion of our social media, website and newsletter. The public sends in questions and we reply with answers verified by our team of subject matter experts via the aforementioned platforms.
