5G ACTION NOW LAUNCHES DIGITAL AD CAMPAIGN HIGHLIGHTING 5G's IMPORTANCE IN FIGHTING COVID-19

WASHINGTON, DC – Today, 5G Action Now launched a new targeted digital ad campaign highlighting how 5G technology is essential to fighting Covid-19 through telemedicine.

The paid digital ads highlight five facts about why 5G technology is crucial to America's healthcare system. It will run for at least thirty days online and will target telecommunications and healthcare influencers, policymakers, and other interested audiences in the Washington, D.C. area.

"The benefits of 5G technology are endless, but nowhere are the benefits more important and immediate than in our healthcare system," said 5G Action Now Spokesperson Ian Prior. "We applaud Chairman Pai and the FCC for its $200 million telehealth plan and encourage Congress to keep working to expand 5G and help Americans get the healthcare they need during the Covid-19 pandemic."
