Ask A Black Doctor: Vaccines
January 21, 2021 | Panel Discussion
On January 21, 2021, Bethany Community Ministries's own Elaine Jenkins, RN, was a featured panelist on "Ask A Black Doctor," a discussion series produced locally by 1Hood Media and Gateway Medical Society. The conversation, moderated by Jasiri X, highlighted experiences around deciding whether to get vaccinated, the science behind the shots, and side effects. The panel also included Rachel Toney, MD, and Stephanie Miller, MD.
