SPONSORED BY
Black Women for Wellness (BWW) is on amission to uplift the health and wellbeing of our community.
Public health messages have urged us to create physical distance, wear a mask, get tested and vaccinate. BWW urges us to mind ourhealth, create a team of health providers, eat healthy, practicespirituality, exercise, strengthen social relationships, de stress, and payattention to our mental health.
Our core values include autonomy overour bodies because for so long Black people have not been able topractice that self-determination. BWW encourages beingnonjudgmental, because we don’t KNOW people’s health status andhistorical experience – we know that our community suffers significanthealth inequities that influence our decisions.
Stay informed, comment, share your story, askquestions and engage! We are all in this together! Let’s do more thanjust survive this pandemic!

COVID-19 Testing

A diagnostic test is needed if you think you currently have COVID-19. A rapid antigen test can show results within 15 minutes, while antibody and molecular tests can take several days to deliver results.

COVID-19 & Maternal Health
While pregnancy does not appear to put expecting mothers at an increased risk of getting COVID-19, studies show that pregnant people who do get COVID-19 are at an increased risk of hospitalization, requiring intensive care or developing serious respiratory issues.
The COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for people who are pregnant, breastfeeding, trying to get pregnant now, or might become pregnant in the future. If you’re already vaccinated, you may also be eligible to get a booster shot. The benefits of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine outweigh any known or potential risks of vaccination during pregnancy.
