Jade has contributed a short documentary to Cov360, an education-based organisation that is working toward charitable status and aims to combat the prevalence of misinformation and disinformation around COVID-19.
The organisation operates in 22 countries and provides peer-reviewed reports, events and videos like Jade’s to deliver expertise in public health. The organisation launched in April and has run events on social interventions, impact of COVID-19 on the global south and civil liberties and conflict resolution. The volunteers consist of postgraduate students from around the globe, the humanitarian sector and other innovation-based backgrounds.
Jade’s documentary is an eye-opening film into Bermuda’s pandemic response. She interviews key workers who have been contributing to the response to the pandemic about their experiences.
She said: “Studying at King’s prepared me for the pandemic before it even began. I recall sitting in my Prevention and Control of Communicable Disease classes learning about virus outbreaks, and how public health practitioners respond to them. It was astonishing to see how a few months later, I’d be first-hand experiencing one.”
