National vaccination initiatives in the United States support the critical work of achieving health equity for all Americans.
While this guide in not intended to be a persuasive tool, it has been developed to provide families and individuals with the information they need to explore concerns, answer questions, and start a conversation about general immunization and the COVID-19 vaccine.
Use Better For It to help keep one another accountable as you seek out the best information for making personal and community health decisions, and to:
- Become a Vaccine Ambassador.
- Supplement your own research on the vaccines.
- Start a dialogue with your family members, friends, physician, faith advisor, and coworkers.
- Share accurate information on social media.
- Learn about the contributions of diverse scientists and public health advocates who strive to bring this pandemic to an end.
Becoming a Vaccine Ambassador
Vaccine receptivity is influenced by many factors, but none stronger than the influence of your family, friends and neighbors. As a Vaccine Ambassador in your community, here are a few ways you can help.
How you can help:
- Share the reasons why you’re getting the COVID-19 vaccine in a short social media video or photo of you getting your shot. You can also download some social media images to use in your posts. Use the hashtag #BetterForIt and tag @LungAssociation.
- Share your story on your own websites, and in your local newsletters, newspapers and more.
- Host a Zoom party! Invite friends and family to have the discussion about making informed decisions using the Better For It toolkit
