Social media is often the first thing people check each day...and also the last! We can use social media to teach people how to evaluate the information they see and use social media to direct people to trustworthy information. *****
Thank you for the nomination for running Cochrane and Cochrane Library social media channels, while putting equity and inclusion as key components. It was an honor to work with Lifeology and WHO to create a course about the COVID infodemic in social media and I am thrilled to see the course I wrote called 'How to talk about vaccines when you're not an expert' become so popular and translated in multiple languages - while you may be a researcher or clinician, it doesn't mean you should know everything about viruses and vaccines so this free course offers practical and easy to implement tips (available in English, German, Malay, and Spanish).
