How can plain language summaries of COVID-19 recommendations improve public confidence in science? Drs. Schünemann, Pottie, and team launch a series of public and provider targeted plain language recommendation summaries as part of the 'COVID-19 Recommendations and Gateway to Contextualization' RecMap. Join us in a discussion of the value of plain language during the COVID-19 pandemic for vaccines, face masks, social distancing and post-COVID recommendations, and discuss opportunities and challenges for public policy and practice.
