DECREASING THE INFORMATION GAP IN OUR COMMUNITIES REGARDING COVID-19 INSPIRED BY THE CONVERSATION BETWEEN US ABOUT US
LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, July 2, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Black people have been affected by COVID-19 disproportionately yet have been reluctant to get vaccinated. Why? Beginning July 7th, a series of conversations will begin with Dr. Corey Hebert, regarding the low inoculation rate among African Americas for the COVID-19 vaccine. Vaccines are readily available, but large segments of the Black population are not lining up to get the shot. Could it be distrust based on history, such as how blacks were used as guinea pigs for the Tuskegee Experiment, or is it based in distrust of the government and the medical community? This and more will be discussed.Unpacking the resistance and having an honest conversation with video-based answers to common concerns is the focus of this online event starting July 7.
The idea that the vaccine is not safe for African Americans, is simply not true. These sessions are targeted at people who still need more education, information, or support before scheduling their COVID-19 vaccine. With this series of online events, you will have your questions and concerns addressed by experts, allowing the viewer to make an intelligent decision on the importance of the vaccine as it relates to protecting themselves and their families.
And, with the Delta variant looming, those who are fully vaccinated are encouraged to attend to get updated information to pass to friends and loved ones.
The conversations are set up so that users can select a date that is best for them. Presently four (3) days in July are being presented: Wednesday, July 7, Wednesday, July 14, and Wednesday, July 28, 2021.
Participants will also have an opportunity to get their questions answered by Dr. Corey Hebert, physician, journalist, and Chief Medical Editor/Correspondent for Black News Channel (BNC). Everyone who registers will receive a COVID-19 Community Awareness Certificate along with a chance to enter a drawing.
