S1E79: Women’s Health: Fertile Ground for COVID Myths / Andrea Edlow, Stephanie Gaw, Alice Lu-Culligan, Leena Mithal, Steve Stecklow

Women’s health is fertile ground for mis- and disinformation to arise… especially when it comes to COVID, vaccines, fertility and pregnancy. This is in no small part because the exclusion of pregnant women from clinical trials creates an information void in which rumors and myths can easily take root.

S1E77: Vaccination Verification: Ticket to Ride or Social Divide? / Albert Fox Cahn, Lawrence Gostin, Fatima Hassan & JP Pollak

As vaccination rates rise steadily in many wealthier countries in North America and Europe, calls for a return to normal life are increasing. One proposed solution is vaccine certificates. Such systems would let people travel and attend public events if they show proof of vaccination. But critics worry about unintended consequences.

S1E75: Vaccinating the World Part I: The Problem with Patents / Chris Morten, Priti Krishtel, Rohit Malpani

Vaccines are now widely available in the United States. But for the rest of the world… where vaccines are still largely unavailable… the pandemic is now worse than ever. So far, much of the discussion around vaccine supply to the developing world has focused on donating excess doses. 80 million doses might sound like a lot. But the reality is that it’s not nearly enough.

S1E74: Techno-Racism & COVID at Home and Abroad / Mútale Nkonde, Corin Faife, Heidi Larson, Imran Ahmed

Alongside the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 this past year, we’ve seen the proliferation of disinformation on social media. This parallel epidemic, what the WHO calls an infodemic, has thwarted efforts to control the pandemic around the world. Some of the most vulnerable people and countries have been the targets of these campaigns.

S1E68: Medical Racism Past and Present / Vanessa Northington Gamble, Harriet Washington & Rueben Warren

Black Americans are twice as likely to die from COVID as white Americans. Despite this, polls show that African-Americans are less interested in receiving the vaccine than other groups. But for people of color who do want the vaccine, inequities in U.S. healthcare are making access to vaccines more difficult.

Epidemic / S1E56 : Flattening the Infodemic Curve / Claire Wardle, John Cook and Renee DiResta

Facebook recently announced they will remove unfounded claims and disinformation about vaccines from their platforms. Dr. Celine Gounder is the host of EPIDEMIC, a podcast about the public health and science of the coronavirus pandemic. Dr. Gounder spoke with John Cook. He’s a professor who has found a surprising tool to fight climate change denial that has big implications for combating misinformation during the pandemic.
