        Vaccine Messaging Guide

        This Guide was developed by the Yale Institute of Global Health and the UNICEF Demand for Immunization team. It is intended for public health professionals, communicators, advocates and anyone else who wishes to create pro-vaccine content to motivate people to vaccinate themselves and their entourage.

        An increasing body of formative research has identified a complex mix of determinants of people’s vaccine decisions, however there remains a paucity of implementation research that has applied these insights to the design and testing of messaging interventions.

        Every recommendation herein is based on the current evidence, but the authors encourage users to test all content for behavior-related outcomes.

                  Questions and Answers: Adolescents, Youth and COVID-19

                  These questions and answers were developed by the World Health Organization, UNESCO, UNFPA and UNICEF.

                  Questions include:

                  • Can adolescents catch COVID-19?
                  • Can adolescents spread COVID-19 to other people even if they have mild or no symptoms?
                  • Since there are few known cases of adolescents getting seriously ill with COVID-19, should I go to a health facility if I develop symptoms of the disease?
                  • I am on medication for a chronic health condition. Should I change anything?
                  • I am bored staying home. Since I am very unlikely to get severely ill even if I was to get COVID-19, why is it important that I follow the guidelines to prevent transmission such as keeping physical distance from other people?
                  • I am feeling really anxious about COVID-19 and its impact on my life. What should I do?
