It's essential for people with cystic fibrosis to keep a safe distance from others at all times, which is why The Social Distance Squad was established to help educate people on the importance of keeping a safe distance from others, especially during a global pandemic. The group of teens with cystic fibrosis are branded as "social distancing experts" and they're on a mission to help teens who are struggling to cope with the realities of COVID.
As individuals with cystic fibrosis are required to social distance due to their genetic condition, this program developed by Area 23 (an FCB Health Network company) offers tips for beating boredom and feeding creativity, as well as bonding and dating others safely.
