The pod of Alex Butler and Faisal Ahmed is joined by guest Len Starnes to talk about how doctors are using professional social networks to fight the coronavirus, COVID-19. Len has undertaken research into networks from across the world including China, USA, UK and Europe and has defined a number of ways that doctors are using these networks. This usage includes crowdsourcing information and ideas, providing data to governments on doctors response and needs, developing partnerships such as with WHO and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and including other members of the community such as nurses, pharmacists and patients.
