Social Distancing Doesn’t Have to Mean Social Isolation

With social distancing as the hottest new trend (as well it should be), the #StayHome #WithMe movement is helping people connect with others around the world. YouTube has created a new and unique channel that features multiple playlists of videos that utilize the trending hashtag to invite others to get creative, get healthy, get organized and more, #withme.

Why "Stay Home #WithMe"?

The idea behind the movement is that by encouraging others to stay home, we’re all doing our part to help protect those who can’t stay home due to the essential nature of their jobs. Staying home encourages social distancing while also (ironically) pulling the world closer together… virtually!

“Stay Home #WithMe: The message is simple. Those of us who can stay home, need to stay home.”

What Can You Do #WithMe?

The #WithMe playlists include something for everyone with videos created by celebrities, famous YouTubers, and everyday people who just want to help make staying indoors to slow the spread of COVID-19 easier, a lot less lonely, and far more appealing.

The playlists are amazing!

  • Do you want to Jam? Let’s rock!

  • Need help studying? Here’s a set of free virtual tutors on just about any subject.

  • Wish you could bake or cook? Now you can!

  • How about some mental clarity? Let’s meditate.

  • Are you a gamer? Game on!

  • Worried about your physical fitness? Let’s get physical!

These are just a few of the many (not-so) mini-communities found in the #WithMe Movement! YouTube and the global YouTube community have you covered no matter what your interests are, and invite you to join in.

Expert Tips & Advice

YouTube understands how easy it is to spread misinformation and fake news, especially now. For this reason, included on the Stay Home channel is a list of expert tips and advice from reliable sources about how to deal with COVID-19. The Expert Tips and Advice section isn’t just for virus news. It also contains very helpful information about things like how to properly disinfect your phone, talking to your kids about COVID-19, and DIY coverings, and more.
