“One of my favorite videos in this release is How Community Spread Happens Fast. It’s a short animation of Justin, a millennial who brings a box of donuts to work at his tech office, and unknowingly infects his co-workers, some who are at high risk for severe complications.”

Mytonomy, an enterprise SaaS company and film studio enabling healthcare’s digital front door, announced today the availability of 16 new videos in English and Spanish to support patient-facing education around the novel Coronavirus (SARS2-CoV-19).

The company has been providing support to multiple health systems via the development of original content to support this rapidly evolving public health crisis. The 16 newly released videos follow CDC and WHO guidelines and cover important topics such as:


  • Why and how social distancing works and how to apply social distancing to your life
  • Rules for self-quarantine vs. self-isolation and how to carry it out effectively
  • What to do if you feel sick or think you have been exposed as well as how to use telehealth visits effectively
  • Reducing Coronavirus stress and bolstering your immune system during a crisis
  • Taking special precautions for those with underlying chronic health conditions or compromised immune systems

These videos can be accessed for free here: https://www.mytonomy.com/covid-19-patient-education-videos.html

This release follows on the heels of five videos released Monday, March 9th, 2020 which covered important informational topics such as:

  • Coronavirus: What is it and how to stay safe, recognizing symptoms, and how to talk with kids about Coronavirus.

“One of my favorite videos in this release is How Community Spread Happens Fast. It’s a short animation of Justin, a millennial who brings a box of donuts to work at his tech office, and unknowingly infects his co-workers, some who are at high risk for severe complications,” said Anjali Kataria, CEO, and Co-Founder. “After seeing our health system partners quickly adopt the first five videos, and after reading an article this weekend called Social Distancing: This is Not a Snow Day by Asaf Bitton, MD, MPH from Ariadne Labs, it made sense to galvanize our content team to create these additional videos.”

“Hopefully, this new content will help reduce the strain on front-line health care workers and provide patients and their families with answers to important questions in this time of uncertainty. Coronavirus has forced us to think differently and do what we each can to help flatten the curve,” said Kataria.

The videos are accessible through Mytonomy’s Patient Experience Cloud as part of a care communication strategy to inform existing patients or monitor patients suspected of being infected.

Third parties can request the actual MP4 files for their social media use or delivery alongside their telehealth program by emailing Mytonomy at covid19@mytonomy.com.
