Colorado’s COVID-19 Vaccination: Hesitancy, Ethics, and Logistics
Virtual panel discussion with Q&A
Now that there are COVID-19 vaccines available and more in the research pipeline, our attention turns to how to get the vaccine into people. In this panel, we'll explore some of the challenges of offering vaccination to the entire population of Colorado. We'll discuss how vaccine hesitancy and skepticism impacts uptake, the ethical considerations of vaccine distribution, and the logistics of getting two shots in every arm across our mountainous and rural geography.
This webinar will be recorded for those who are unable to attend.
