Epidemiologist Dr. John Wong led the webinar entitled, “Epidemiology for Communicators: Telling Stories of the Covid-19 Pandemic in the Philippines” organized by Epimetrics Inc. and Probe Media Foundation, supported by SM Prime Holdings, Inc. and the National Resilience Council (NRC).
A year after its outbreak, vaccination campaigns for Covid-19 have already rolled out in several countries, including the United States, Canada, and Singapore. A vaccination program has yet to begin in the Philippines as of press time, but to attain herd immunity, proper public health communication is just as important as a strategic vaccine mobilization program, according to epidemiologist Dr. John Wong.
