Improving COVID-19  Vaccine Confidence in Rural Populations

Currently, my work is focused on improving vaccine confidence in Appalachia. Research shows that the population most hesitant and likely to refuse the COVID-19 vaccine is rural, conservative, evangelicals. By providing culturally appropriate messaging and utilizing trusted messengers in the local community, vaccine confidence will be improved. We are in a race against time to see as much of the nation vaccinated as possible to turn this pandemic around and lessen the chances of more deadly variants forming. Please contact me to see how I can assist you and your agency in this significant endeavor.
