The New York Times: Medical students aid homebound seniors
UC medical students develop COVID-19 Match program
Aspiring doctors at UC whose studies were interrupted by the coronavirus have morphed their mission into taking care of people who are especially vulnerable to the pandemic's dangers. The Associated Press, whose story was picked up nationally, looks at UC medical students who started a “COVID-19 match” program.

The New York Times, the Washington Post, Yahoo UK, the Houston Chronicle, the Toronto Star and US News and World Report were among the publications carrying the story about COVID-19 Match, an effort spearheaded by UC medical students, Cassandra Schoborg and Thomas Daley.
