Marvel Universe actress Olivia Munn is banding together with B.C.'s Dr. Bonnie Henry, giving Henry the chance to takeover her social media accounts next Tuesday.
“There are some people you need to hear from right now and it isn’t me. I am handing over my account to an expert on all things COVID-19," explains Munn, who played Psylocke from the X-Men series.
"This COVID-19 virus has shown us that if it is anywhere, everywhere is at risk. We are a global community, and we’re all in the same storm, but we are not all in the same boat," wrote Dr. Henry.
The organization ONE is working with celebrities and medical experts to spread the word on COVID-19 through their #PassTheMic initiative where the public can hear directly from the experts.
"Each day, celebrities will hand their social media channels over to medical experts and frontline workers to explain how we can beat this global pandemic," stated ONE's website.
Munn has over 2.6 million followers on Instagram and over 816,000 followers on Twitter.
Dr. Henry's calming demeanour has guided British Columbians through the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to get recognized for her great efforts.
She was featured in the New York Times, has a shoe named after her to raise funds for Food Banks BC, and now has an octopus named after her at a Vancouver Island aquarium.
