Just as in our closed online support groups\, we trust that you will follow this strict rule. No sharing of private discussions outside of the video support session.\nWhen sharing\, we ask you to be mindful of time so that everyone has a chance to share.\nIf you have something to add to the discussion\, we ask that you do not interrupt while someone is speaking. The hosts will announce at the start of the session how each session will run.\nAnything shared should be audience-appropriate. We will not tolerate hate speech\, bullying\, inappropriate comments or jokes\, or the promotion of any outside services\, products\, websites\, or other online links that are not related to our discussions.\n\nWhen discussing COVID-19 . . .\nWhen discussing COVID-19\, to keep all of our members safe and comfortable\, and to protect the integrity of the conversation\, we will continue to enforce the rules we put in place below. We will have a no-tolerance policy for these rules and thankfully have not had to use them. We will give one warning and then will ask you to leave the session if you will not comply. We are not equipped to answer the questions about science or conspiracies\, and therefore we must ask that they are left at the door. \nWe will NOT have or provide: \n\nA debate about science;\nA political discussion;\nA conversation about conspiracy theories;\nMedical advice (beyond what is listed as criteria to call your doctor).\n\nWhat we hope this video support session will be: \n\nA safe space to voice your experiences and ask questions among similarly situated people who understand;\nA place to get ideas for staying sane while practicing social distancing\, isolation\, or quarantine;\nA chance to get ideas for staying safe if you must continue participating in the outside world;\nAn opportunity to see that you are not alone.\n\nThe views and opinions of session Hosts\, Co-hosts\, and Volunteers are not that of Myositis Support and Understanding (MSU). [/vc_column_text]\n\n\n    [vc_column_text] \nHow do I join video support sessions?\nZoom is available for almost all devices including computers\, laptops\, smartphones\, and tablets. \nTo install Zoom on a computer/laptop: Visit the Downloads page on Zoom’s website and download/install the Zoom Client for Meetings. \nTo install Zoom on a device: Visit your App store and search for Zoom and install. \nThen\, visit our Events Calendar and register for the monthly support sessions that interest you. \nIf you need additional help\, we have Zoom help documents with more detail. \nWhy do I have to register?\nBecause of security concerns and to ensure we are able to better provide a safe space and control who joins the sessions we require registration.
