Event description

In honor of Black History Month, BESAC proudly presents a virtual panel of experts to discuss the science and facts about COVID-19 vaccines.

About this Event

In a recent Kaiser Health News poll, 35% of Black adult respondents said that they were "highly unlikely" to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. Our panel of experts will discuss the science behind the COVID-19 vaccines and their clinical efficacy in an effort to dispel myths, raise awareness, and ultimately reduce disparities in the vaccination rate in the Black community. Distinguished panelists include Dr. Mysheika W. Roberts, Health Commissioner, Columbus Public Health; Candia Brown, Sr. Director for Global Market Development at Thermo-Fisher Scientific; and Terrence Satterfield, Ph.D., Cell Biologist and Senior Scientist at Maze Therapeutics.
