- 3. Objectives Learn about the COVID-19 vaccines. Review common myths related to the vaccines. Discuss the best places to find accurate information about the COVID-19 vaccines.
- 5. Reflection Did you learn anything from the video that you didn't know before? Was there anything you heard in the video that was different than what you thought?
- 6. MYTHBUSTERS! There has been a ton of misinformation going around about COVID- 19 and the Vaccines. Use the information you learned from the video, then test your knowledge to determine if these next statements are FACTS or MYTHS.
- 7. Only 1% of people die from COVID. The vaccine will kill more people than that.
- 8. Only 1% of people die from COVID. The vaccine will kill more people than that. COVID-19 kills one out of a hundred people who are infected. So far, over 530,000 people have died from COVID-19. 0 people have died from the vaccine.
- 9. The vaccines make you sick with COVID-19.
- 10. The vaccines make you sick with COVID-19. The current vaccines don’t include the virus in any form. No live virus, no weakened virus, no dead virus. You cannot get the disease from the vaccine.
- 11. Someone who already had COVID should still get the vaccine.
- 12. Someone who already had COVID should still get the vaccine. There have been a few well-documented cases of people being infected twice. So even if you have had COVID-19 and recovered, you will benefit from the vaccine.
- 13. As soon as the shot is in my arm, I'm protected from COVID.
- 14. As soon as the shot is in my arm, I'm protected from COVID. It takes about 2 weeks from the final dose of the vaccine for the body to build immunity.

Editor's Notes
- Play the video for the students (2:15) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWGTciX795o
- The next few slides can be used for a quick game of Mythbusters. Read each slide and allow the students to guess if the statement is TRUE, or if it is a MYTH. After the students guess, the very next slide will reveal the answer.
- Read each slide and allow the students to guess if the statement is TRUE, or if it is a MYTH.
- The vast majority of ill effects from vaccines show up within hours or days. There is no basis for believing we will see something different here. Source: http://www.publichealth.lacounty.gov/media/coronavirus/docs/about/COVID19VaccineMisinformation.pdf

- Additional Information: Some other vaccines use the virus they are fighting in some form to charge up an immune response. The current COVID-19 vaccines do not work that way so there is no way that they could give you COVID-19. It is possible to catch the disease in the first few days after your vaccination before the vaccine has a chance to work, but that would not mean you got sick from the vaccine. For most people, the vaccine needs 7 days before it starts to work. And both these vaccines require a second dose before a person is fully protected from getting sick from the virus. It is easy to be confused about this, because you might feel some side effects for a while after getting the vaccine. In fact, about half of the volunteers who tested these vaccines experienced some side effects: most of these effects were mild and did not require any treatment or change in daily activity and lasted for 1-2 days. What they were feeling was not COVID-19, however, not even a mild case of COVID-19. They were feeling the symptoms of an immune response, which means that the vaccine was at work developing antibodies to protect them from COVID-19.

- We don’t know how long natural immunity – the immunity you get from having been sick – lasts. We also don’t know if it is complete. Source: http://www.publichealth.lacounty.gov/media/coronavirus/docs/about/COVID19VaccineMisinformation.pdf
- Read slide and allow the students to guess if the statement is TRUE, or if it is a MYTH.
- That means it is possible a person could still get COVID-19 before or just after vaccination and then get sick because the vaccine did not have enough time to provide protection. People should keep using all the tools available to protect themselves and others until they are fully vaccinated.

- The next few slides provide an opportunity for the students to determine the best place to get accurate, correct, information REGARDING THE COVID VACCINE.
- Encourage dialogue about where students might find the most accurate, SCIENTIFIC information: A doctor? Or their friends?
- Encourage dialogue about where students might find the most accurate, SCIENTIFIC information. Instagram? Or the CDC?
- Encourage dialogue about where students might find the most accurate, SCIENTIFIC information. The World Health Organization? Or Facebook?
- Use this as an opportunity to talk to the students about bias in the media. Share with the students that while the news channels can be a good source of information, they tend to share news skewed in one direction or another. Time permitting, and based on your personal comfort level, feel free to share this general guide with the students. https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/media-bias-ratings
