A trusted guide with an exclusive opportunity for journalists

Since 2001, CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta has covered some of the most significant health stories across America and the rest of the world.
During the pandemic, he became a household fixture as a thoughtful, trusted voice when it came to navigating fact vs. fiction around COVID-19.
That's why Poynter is thrilled to announce a new webinar featuring Gupta — and this time around, he'll be sharing his trusted guidance just with us journalists.
In partnership with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Risk Less. Do More. ([link removed]) campaign, this free, 90-minute Poynter webinar featuring Gupta ([link removed]) will help journalists debunk false narratives about vaccines and respiratory illnesses, find out about the common falsehoods that experts are tracking, and access reliable data and legitimate information about vaccination rates and trends in the communities journalists cover.
