Title: Melissa Hawkins Interview, October 3, 2020
Date: October 3, 2020
Creator: Melissa Hawkins; Laura Sislen
Description: From the American University Department of Health Studies and Humanities Truck Fellow, Melissa Hawkins discusses the evolving impact of COVID-19. In some ways 7 months feels like a lifetime ago. The impact has been different for each member of her family including her 4 children such as adjusting to online schooling. She reflects on how fortunate the family has been to not be afflicted by job loss or illness; the day-to-day adjustments have been more impactful. Some silver-linings include: the amount of time spent together, re-evaluating what's important, who's important, and reaching out to loved ones. What keeps them going? Their pets! As there are many revealing lessons about the fragmentation of the health care and public health systems, Melissa, who works in public health, reflects on the mistrust of science and scientists that became apparent through this and hopes to build that trust to rely on science in times of uncertainty.
