Greater Victoria doctors take to social media to tackle vaccine hesitancy

Times Colonist: Greater Victoria doctors concerned about COVID-vaccine hesitancy, especially amid the spread of a new variant on the Island, have ramped up their efforts to encourage immunization by posting information ­videos to YouTube and Facebook. “There is a lot of misinformation out there and as a consequence, vaccine hesitancy is a real concern in spite of the good progress with the vaccine rollout,” said Dr. Aaron Childs, a family physician with the Victoria Division of Family Practice, which is behind the videos.
