Because I can't comprehend the irresponsible behavior of so many of us in the gay community -- I decided to host a panel discussion with these healthcare practitioners to get some questions answered, myths dispelled, and to set the record straight.

It is my hope that this video will give us the information we need to stay safe, and that you will share this after watching it.

*NOTE: I recorded these interviews on May 25th.  It is now almost 2 full months later.  I struggle with ADHD to begin with, and total social isolation makes it especially difficult for me to focus and get any work done, so please accept my apologies for not having this up sooner.
