VetaHumanz Need Vaccines Too!

项目摘要/摘要 家长助学金，See Us-Be Us，通过以下方式回应K-12-ST EM教育中的关键差距：(1) 兽医榜样在种族和民族方面的多样性，(2)获得兽医STEM教育材料，以及 (3)获得体验式学习机会。自2020年9月1日开始资助以来， 家长拨款中提出的兽医STEM生态系统已扩展到学术界以外，通过转变为 一个兽医超级英雄联盟，维塔人道联盟。VetaHumanz是人类(兽医) 保护动物和公共健康的超级大国。作为一个国家，我们面临着日益增长的挑战 受SARS-CoV-2不成比例影响的服务不足人群对疫苗的接受度， 缺乏获得医疗保健的机会，并且由于历史原因对医疗机构长期不信任 虐待和剥削。这个行政副刊，VetaHumanz也需要疫苗！，旨在促进 在服务不足的社区通过教育儿童及其家庭了解SARS-CoV-2疫苗接种情况 疫苗接种的重要性，使儿童能够成为疫苗接种的倡导者，并激励儿童 探索影响公众健康的兽医职业。我们对小学早期儿童的关注是 创新是因为我们有机会教育那些还没有发展成 对我们医疗系统的长期不信任。在短期内，儿童可以对他们的健康产生积极的影响 通过倡导接种疫苗来促进社区的发展。从长远来看，孩子们可以通过渴望改变叙事 成为更好地代表美国民众、值得公众信任的兽医科学家。我们 假设在了解了疫苗和SARS-CoV-2疫苗接种的重要性后， 儿童将在他们的社区积极推广疫苗接种，并渴望成为兽医。这 副刊有三个具体目标。目标1的重点是开发一种疫苗超级动力包。疫苗 超能力包将包含儿童关于疫苗重要性的教育材料。Pack将 还鼓励追求兽医事业和交流科学知识，通过推出 主持VetaHumanz直播的超级英雄兽医科学家！播客。AIM 2的重点是促进SARS- CoV-2疫苗接种，由参与应对SARS-CoV-2的兽医通过 VetaHumanz现场直播！播客将通过我们的网站和社区活动播出。目标3 通过VetaHumanz社交媒体联盟活动推广SARS-CoV-2疫苗接种。我们的联盟 VetaHumanz是一个影响深远、包容的兽医STEM生态系统，由兽医专业人士组成， 兽医学生和为弱势青年服务的社区实体将为 教育资源的分发和消息传递。VetaHumanz将教育儿童和模特 在社交媒体上为SARS-CoV-2接种疫苗，因为即使是超级英雄也需要疫苗。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT T he parent grant, See Us-Be Us, responds to critical gaps in K-1 2 ST EM education, by increasing (1 ) v isibility of veterinary role models diverse in race and ethnicity, (2) access to veterinary STEM educational materials, and (3) access to experiential learning opportunities. Since the start of funding on September 1, 2020, the veterinary STEM ecosystem proposed in the parent grant has expanded beyond academia by transforming into a veterinary superhero league, The League of VetaHumanz. VetaHumanz are human beings (veterinarians) with superpowers who protect animal and public health. As a nation, we face the challenge of increasing vaccine acceptance by underserved populations who have been disproportionately impacted by SARS-CoV-2, lack access to healthcare, and have a longstanding mistrust of medical establishments resulting from a history abuse and exploitation. This administrative supplement, VetaHumanz Need Vaccines Too!, aims to promote SARS-CoV-2 vaccination uptake in underserved communities by educating children and their families on the importance of vaccination, empowering children to becoming advocates for vaccination, and inspiring children to explore veterinary careers that impact public health. Our focus on early elementary school children is innovative because we have an opportunity to educate underserved children who have not yet developed a long-term mistrust of our medical system. In the short term, children can positively impact the health of their communities by advocating for vaccination. In the long term, children can change the narrative by aspiring to become veterinary scientists that better represent the US population and are worthy of public trust. We hypothesize that after becoming informed about vaccines and the importance of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, children will actively promote vaccination in their communities and aspire to become veterinarians. This supplement has three specific aims. T he focus of Aim 1 is to dev elop a Vaccine SuperPower Pack. Vaccine SuperPower Packs will contain educational materials for children about the importance of vaccines. Packs will also encourage pursuit of veterinary careers and communication of scientific knowledge by featuring the superhero veterinary scientist who hosts the VetaHumanz Live! podcast. Aim 2 is focused on promoting SARS- CoV-2 vaccination by featuring veterinarians who have been involved in the response to SARS-CoV-2 through the VetaHumanz Live! podcast which will be broadcast through our website and community events. Aim 3 promotes SARS-CoV-2 vaccination through a League of VetaHumanz social media campaign. Our League of VetaHumanz, a far-reaching, inclusive veterinary STEM ecosystem consisting of veterinary professionals, veterinary students, and community entities serving disadvantaged youth, will provide the frameworkfor distribution of educational resources and messaging. VetaHumanz will educate children as well as model being vaccinated for SARS-CoV-2 on social media campaigns, because even superheroes need vaccines.
