BA and partners in the Philippines created social media posts and an online talk show that addresses myths, misconceptions and misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines. The talk show was hosted by a famous celebrity mom, together with medical experts and the three moms who lead the online communities. During the talk show, the medical experts talked about how vaccines work and why getting vaccinated is important especially for immunocompromised children. The participants of the show shared personal experiences when having their children vaccinated and the concerns of their fellow moms and discussed how to address those concerns.
