NNLM Covid-19 Symposium: Responding to the COVID-19 Infodemic
April 8-9, 2021 (Each day starts at Noon)
"The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the disparities of under-served, minority, and underrepresented communities. This includes ensuring equal understanding of accurate health information, education in hard hit communities, and valuing inclusion in clinical research to overcome COVID-19.
The NNLM Virtual Symposium: Responding to the COVID-19 Infodemic is an opportunity to address misinformation and mistrust, raise awareness about the pandemic, and efforts to combat it. Symposium attendees can expect to come away from the 2-day experience with a better understanding of COVID-19 and share strategies and programs to engage with your community.
