That's wonderful that NPHC orgs are helping to get people vaccinated. I know at my job we've been having discussions about what is known as trusted messengers especially among African American, Hispanic, as well as Native American communities. There is rightfully a distrust of the medical system especially among African Americans due to the historically poor treatment especially in medical studies/experiments that having trusted messengers through the church or NPHC groups to encourage those who might still be reluctant or hesitant to get vaccinated. Such amazing work and so great to see a positive story.
