Before the pandemic, I could count the number of times I was featured on the news on one hand. Although hard at times, I'm thankful for the opportunity to be a voice for others that may not feel like they have one or help be that listening ear to those who are hesitant.

Dr. Zain Chagla. A name you probably now recognize in the media as the voice of St. Joe’s during the COVID-19 pandemic. He's an educated, guiding voice between fact and fiction. Read how @zchagla has brought calm to the chaotic: bit.ly/3pBLj8d #WeAreStJoes

I never thought I’d see a @CDCgov travel advisory for Canada. “Travellers should avoid all travel to Canada. Because of the current situation in  Canada even fully vaccinated travelers may be at risk for getting and spreading COVID-19 variants and should avoid all travel” – at Toronto, Ontario
