West Virginians are looking for information about COVID-19 vaccines. Clear, consistent, and scientifically sound messaging about the COVID-19 vaccines is imperative to ensure everybody has the knowledge and confidence that they need to make a decision about getting vaccinated. The West Virginia Joint Information Center (WV JIC) for COVID-19 Vaccine recognizes the essential roles that partner agencies hold as trusted information sources and tireless advocates for communities in our Mountain State.

Thus, the WV JIC for COVID-19 Vaccine developed the following communication toolkit to help our valued partner agencies respond to questions about the COVID-19 vaccine(s). This is intended as a reference guide for healthcare and public health agencies to use in communication with their audiences.
