What events will be available?

Interactive Presentations-led by Epidemiology students, 2-4pm EST (on zoom*)

Three interactive breakout rooms (lurk or participate - your choice) focused on different vaccine aspects;

  1. Get to Know the Vaccines - What are the types of vaccines, how do they work, are there side effects?

  2. Operation Warp Speed - How were the vaccines developed, what does the pace of development have to do with how well they work, and how safe they are?

  3. Overheard about Covid Vaccines - what is the evidence around those common questions, will it affect my fertility or my DNA? Aren't I immune already since I had covid-19?

(*Households containing an active Earlham student/employee may visit these stations in-person at tables outside of the museum at the same time or on zoom!)
