Covid-19 myth-busting sessions report

Report - 24 May 2021

This report showcases myth-busting Zoom sessions we ran in partnership with HARP (Health Access for Refugees Programme) and British Red Cross on the Covid-19 vaccine for asylum seekers and refugees.

From some previous work we had done with the refugees and asylum seekers we discovered that there was a hesitancy amongst this group regarding the vaccination so working in partnership with HARP (the Refugee Councils project on Health Access for Refugees Program) and British Red Cross we were able to successfully apply for some grant funding from Healthwatch England to present some myth busting sessions over Zoom.  The sessions were presented in 7 different languages and had some amazing results which we have been able to share with NICE and Doctors of the World when they put out a call for evidence.
