With the arrival of vaccines against COVID-19, journalists, communicators and the fact-checking community around the world have tried their best to cover the vaccination efforts and help the general public understand the current stage of the global pandemic that took hold one year ago.
However, just as with the coronavirus last year, the vaccines have brought their own sets of challenges for reporters and editors needing to explain their development, efficacy, side effects, distribution and more to societies eager for reliable information.
