In the coming weeks, followers of Hollywood greats like Julia Roberts (52, “Ben is Back”) or Hugh Jackman (51, “Wolverine”) can benefit from scientific contributions. Because of the corona crisis, the stars are handing over their social media channels to hospital staff and scientists.

The campaign is called #passthemic (to pass on the microphone) – and will run for around three weeks from Thursday. In this way, experts should have a wider reach. This was announced by the organizers of the charity One Campaign.

Julia Roberts does that today. One day she will leave her social media channels to the US virologist Anthony Fauci (79). He advises the US government on how to deal with the pandemic. A million audience is guaranteed. Roberts has around 8.7 million followers on Instagram and around 500,000 on Twitter – even though she has not yet posted a single tweet.
