Do Your Research


As stated by the CDC, immunization with an COVID-19 is crucial for “reducing COVID-19 related illness, hospitalization and death” (cdc.gov). With the push for vaccination compliance being at the forefront of the news lately data shows those that want to be vaccinated are currently vaccinated, those who want to be vaccinated are. The target now is converting the part of the population that still have doubt (Kaiser Family Foundation). “Do your research” seems to be the advice given to those who are up in the air from both those who are for and against vaccination. We would like to conduct research on where people are obtaining their answers as it related to COVID-19, the COVID-19 vaccination, testing and information regarding other recommended vaccines by age. With this information we would like to use NIH databases to provide evidence-based sites that are easy to read and aid in “Doing your research”
