The COVID-19 pandemic has tested the ability of government and public health officials to effectively communicate complex COVID-19 information to a diverse public audience. At the same time, multiple other common鈥痵ources of information (and misinformation) have caused confusion and mistrust of official messaging. Expert panelists discuss the roles of鈥痯ublic health officials, mainstream and social media, and efforts to counter misinformation throughout the population.
This Community Health Roundtable aired on NPR 缅北禁地 on Dec. 13, 2021.
