Ask Your Burning Questions: COVID-19 Vaccines and Booster Shots
October 28, 2021 –
The National Indian Health Board (NIHB) is hosting the first event in the COVID-19 Ask Me Anything (AMA) Series. American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/ANs) across the country are getting a COVID vaccine for various reasons -- going back to school, playing sports, and protecting their family and communities. Native youth and parents, young people, and Tribal community members are invited to join the AMA to ask any questions they might have about COVID-19 vaccines or booster shots to an expert from the CDC.
Speaker: Kim Fox, MD, MPH, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
This AMA is focused on knowledge sharing and helping Tribal communities dispel any myths about COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots. Submit questions ahead of time with so presenter(s) have time to review them. Please come prepared to ask questions or share your own insights and experiences.
This AMA will be free and streamed live on Zoom and Facebook.
Who should attend? The AMA is open to any interested person, but is likely most relevant to Youth, parents and caregivers, Tribal leaders, Tribal public health professionals, Tribal health departments, Tribal healthcare personnel, and those who want to learn more about COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots.
