Scientists Using TikTok to Teach About Vaccine
Scientists working on a vaccine are going to be using platforms like TikTok, Instagram and Twitter to help people understand what they're doing. It's part of a new campaign called Team Halo, with researchers in the UK, US, South Africa, India and Brazil all getting involved. TikTok will be the main app, with scientists making videos to explain the science in a simple way for people of all backgrounds and age groups. Dr. Anna Blakney, part of the vaccine development team at Imperial College London, said it was a way of "demystifying" the work being done around vaccines. NICE!
