A Playbook for Addressing Health Misinformation: Applications for Immunization Programs and Partners

On April 30, AIM held the webinar A Playbook for Addressing Health Misinformation: Applications for Immunization Programs and Partners. During this webinar, attendees learned from Tara Kirk Sell, Ph.D., MA, and Aishwarya Nagar, MPH, about the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security’s Practical playbook for addressing health misinformation, which takes a hands-on approach to help public health practitioners, medical professionals, and health communicators recognize and respond to health-related rumors and misinformation. Attendees also heard from Tad Sooter, public information officer at the Kitsap Public Health District, about his real-world experiences implementing the playbook’s concepts and other strategies to address misinformation and build trust.
