Brought to you by the India Institute and Hopkins at Home

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a dramatic impact on public health across the globe and while many countries are seeing a decline in COVID-19 cases, India is experiencing an alarming surge. The India Institute, in partnership with Hopkins at Home, is inviting students, faculty, staff, and alumni to bring their questions to experts from Johns Hopkins using a flexible AMA-style platform that allows them to ask questions as they arise, and on their own schedules.

Our panel of experts is looking forward to answering your questions, sharing their answers for all to see. The virtual bulletin board will be active for the three weekdays. You can submit your question at any time during that period and simply check back later for an answer; experts will post their answers within a day’s time.

Questions and answers will be public, and though we can’t guarantee that all questions will be answered, moderators will be coordinating with experts to answer as many of your questions as possible. No question is too big or too small; we want this to be a space where you can go to better understand all facets of the COVID 19 election.

The India Institute and the Alumni Association welcomes a diversity of thought and opinions, however, we do ask that your questions and comments remain respectful and on-topic. We reserve the right to delete any questions that are demeaning, harassing/hostile, or derogatory in nature.

How do I ask a question?

  • Create an account or login to your account at the top of this page.

Here are some guidelines to ensure that you, along with the rest of our community, have a positive experience:

  • Questions and answers will be public, and though we can’t guarantee that all questions will be answered, moderators will be coordinating with experts to answer as many of your questions as possible.
