Join the Muslim Educational Trust as we host leading physicians and respected faith leaders to explore how American clergy of different faiths are addressing vaccination concerns including Covid-19 vaccine safety, what is and isn’t in the vaccine, why different faith traditions encourage vaccination, as well as other medical and theological questions about the vaccine.

Faith leaders have always had the influence to change perceptions about public health measures and the Covid-19 vaccination process is no different. In order for the vaccination process to be fully effective, all communities have to fully understand the benefits of vaccination while feeling safe and secure. A history of medical discrimination and marginalization of minority groups in the United States makes many wary about vaccination, but with the work of sound medical expertise combined with the words and actions of trusted faith leaders, a better understanding of the vaccine can be reached.
