Nov. 17 webinar on covering coronavirus shots for children

A free Nov. 17 webinar from the National Press Foundation aims to help journalists explain the coronavirus vaccines' clinical-trial results in plain language and also look ahead to how vaccinating children will affect family, schools, day care, extracurricular activities and more. It will also offer tips for covering vaccine hesitancy, misinformation and disinformation.

Speakers include:

  • Dr. Leana Wen, emergency physician and professor of health policy and management at George Washington University's Milken Institute School of Public Health
  • Rachana Pradhan, national correspondent for Kaiser Health News

The briefing will begin at noon ET on Zoom. It's free to attend, but reporters must register in advance. Click here to register or for more information.
