Tom recently put out a survey https://idratherbewriting.com/blog/quarantine-pandemic-impact-on-tech-comm-survey/
Kirk published an article about the tech comm facets of the pandemic that health communicators have been working in or against https://communicating-about-covid19.weebly.com/
What we chatted about
We talked about two main topics, primarily. First, the results of the pandemic survey. (I also recently posted thoughts about this here: Results of Pandemic Impact on Tech Comm survey.)
Second, we discussed the pandemic from the health tech comm perspective, specifically looking at information in some essays Kirk has written on this topic:

About Tom Johnson
I'm an API technical writer based in the Seattle area. On this blog, I write about topics related to technical writing and communication — such as software documentation, API documentation, AI, information architecture, content strategy, writing processes, agent skills, tech comm careers, and more. Check out my AI courses for more on the latest in AI and tech comm. If you're looking for info about documenting APIs, see my API documentation course.
If you're a technical writer and want to keep on top of the latest trends in tech comm, be sure to subscribe to email updates below. You can also learn more about me or contact me.
Finally, I want to note a couple of things. I usually write the first drafts of my posts myself and then use AI to improve accuracy, clarity, and detail in places, so my writing is a mix of human and AI. (Hopefully that's not too off-putting.) Also, the opinions I express on my blog are my own perspectives, not those of my employer.
