Coronavirus vaccine videos for diverse communities

NHS Leeds
NHS Staff in West Yorkshire have produced some short videos in alternative languages to help people understand more about the coronavirus vaccine and what it means for them.
These are recorded by GPs and are based on the patient leaflets produced by Public Health England to make sure patients get consistent information.
The videos, available on YouTube www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSEYtPE8N908OGjInIl4RueiQDbOF1Cfu, are aimed at helping people over the age of 80, for whom English may not be their first language, have the right information about the vaccine in a way that is meaningful and easy to understand.
We really hope that these videos will help to reassure and encourage our diverse communities to take up the offer of the vaccine when invited.
At the moment these videos are available in English, Pashto and Urdu, but we are hoping to release other languages soon.
Please share these videos with relevant patients, and local communities, who are being invited for the vaccine.
