Contest Entry: Press Club of Cleveland Use of Social Media

This Instagram reel was originally posted to Ideastream Public Media's account (ideastreamneo) on Jan. 28, 2021 with the caption: "ideastream health reporter Anna Huntsman shows you what you need to know about a mutant strain of COVID-19 in Northeast Ohio."

Huntsman created an Instagram reel explainer on how to reduce transmission of the alpha variant, a more contagious strain of the coronavirus, after it was detected in Cleveland. The reel coincided with a more in-depth story about the variant being discovered in Cleveland.
