Bridges and Barriers in Vaccine Deployment: Lessons Learned and Practical Applications Part One
From notable milestones about the latest developments in COVID-19 vaccines to sharing by everyday healthcare workers about their post-vaccine experiences through TikTok videos, "Vacci-Nation: Pathways To Health Resilience Beyond COVID-19", covered a lot of ground in providing lifesaving information about COVID-19 vaccines, and its deployment. PDRF's Project K3 team, in partnership with New Zealand Aid Programme and Brown University's first webinar, "Bridges, and Barriers in Vaccine Deployment: Lessons Learned and Practical Applications", informed us why vaccines matter, and why these matter NOW. The presentations by Brown University faculty members, Dr. John Foggle and Dr. Ramu Kharel marveled at the science of COVID-19 vaccines, highlighted lessons on logistics, and shared some personal expectations after getting the vaccine. In providing practical advice for our healthcare workers and LGU staffers, Dr. Stephanie Garbern shared tips on how to uphold vaccine confidence through effective public communication strategies. Dr. Odeda Benin-Goren and Lev Zhuravsky both shared key success points and expected challenges from their rollouts in Israel and New Zealand, respectively.
The event also provided an opportunity for LGU representatives, Dr. Edwin Miraflor Jr. (Bacolod City) and Mr. Vincent Emnas (Ormoc City), to react to sharings from our global panel of experts. Likewise, Dr. Aleli Sudiacal (DOH) has outlined good points while addressing critical challenges that the Philippines must take on as it approaches the next phase of its COVID-19 strategy.
The live event was attended by 544 participants – a cross-cutting mix of LGU representatives, healthcare workers, and civil society organizations, scattered across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
