This live show is part of several online events and activities that the WHO has convened to collect and analyze stories of the impact of the COVID-19 infodemic. The project launched in July 2022, with a discussion of why storytelling is not just a tool for promoting conversations about science, but it is also a skill that every infodemic manager should have. The infodemic has affected health professionals personally and professionally and changed the way health systems have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic.  On 26 January 2023, we will showcase 3 Spanish speaking Infodemic Managers to tell their own personal experiences about managing the Infodemic during the time of COVID-19.
