Music videos support vaccine literacy
To achieve community-wide immunity from COVID-19, 80% of the general population must get vaccinated, but some adult African Americans have no plans to do so. In an effort to increase trust and combat misinformation surrounding the vaccines, Hip Hop Public Health devised a series of free, engaging, evidence-based music videos called Community Immunity: A Rap Anthology About Vaccines. The five-part series covers general information about vaccines, vaccine safety, myths and misperceptions, what to expect from vaccination and questions about why vaccination is preferable to infection. The videos can be downloaded at no charge.
