Students Talk Science - COVID-19: Minorities and the Vaccine: A Short Film
I created an animated short film that explains various aspects of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. The film discusses how a history of unethical medical practices justifies skepticism about the vaccine, but how facts about the vaccine can help overcome this mistrust. The film also describes how they vaccines were tested for safety and highlights roles minorities played in researching, testing, and increasing trust for the vaccines. Some footage from our interview with Dr. Eliseo Pérez-Stable is included to emphasize the importance of minorities getting vaccinated.
