DESCRIPTION:#VaccineBoosters Campaign to Spread Real Facts & Science on COVID 
 Vaccines\n\nPlease join our Interim Executive Director, Rania Batrice, 
 tonight for our #VaccineBoosters launch event, the first episode of our new 
 live series #getfactsinated with Dr. Hussain Lalani, Dr. Angela Rasmussen, 
 and Alyssa Milano! \n\nWednesday, Feb. 3 @ 3 PM PT (6 PM ET)\n\nFB 
 livstream; https://www.facebook.com/marchforscience\n\nYouTube livestream: 
 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCegT3jvnq_ITkA-kz-3IDaQ\n\n\nMarch for 
 Science is proud to introduce our new vaccine campaign, #VaccineBoosters. 
 This new series is part of our broader campaign to educate the public about 
 the science behind the COVID vaccines and to talk about the injustices and 
 inequities that contribute to vaccine hesitancy.\n \nAs part of this work, 
 we are training thousands of volunteers from around the country to be 
 vaccine ambassadors in their community. Apart from one’s own medical 
 provider, the best people to raise vaccine confidence come from within 
 one’s own community.\n \nFor example, how many of you have friends who 
 have asked if you’re getting the COVID vaccine, and then expressed 
 concern over getting it themselves? The goal of this campaign is to show 
 that everyone has a role to play, and train people in having conversations 
 about vaccines that are actually productive, not confrontational. \n \nWe 
 are working with top experts in public health, vaccine hesitancy, health 
 disparities, and science communication to develop workshops and trainings 
 that are based in solid research.\n\nWe’ll teach you:\n\n--The do’s and 
 dont's of online debates\n\n--How to tell the good info from the 
 bad\n\n--How to organize in your communities and help our most vulnerable 
 members book vaccine appointments\n\n--Most of all: how to help change the 
 world, one conversation at a time\n\nRemember, Science Marchers, humanity 
 has never faced a challenge quite like this, and it will take all of us to 
 address misinformation, make sure access to the vaccine is fair and 
 equitable, and, ultimately, move forward into a COVID-free 
 world.\n____________________________________________________________\n\nJOIN
