The UH College of Medicine invites you to join us for a comprehensive webinar on COVID-19 vaccines.  The FDA’s authorization of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines is an important advance in our effort to fight this devastating pandemic. Unfortunately, even as we distribute available vaccines, misinformation continues to spread creating hesitancy to take the vaccines in our communities. Meanwhile, the COVID-19 coronavirus is still infecting people.

This webinar will help attendees understand and navigate the dynamic vaccine landscape.
