figures of authority has motivated people to trust their peers as the best

Micro-Blogging: Twitter

“I think there is, every few seconds, a tweet on this

topic. It's clear that, if you can give people something to do,

something real to do that could help improve their

health and reduce their risk, that's very empowering

during a difficult situation.”

multiple ways and formats to consume this serious content, from

video explan-ations to podcasts featuring health domain experts…

impenetrably slow and bureaucratic’ agencies out there.
