  • The Impact of Online Misinformation on U.S. COVID-19 Vaccinations
    The impact of online misinformation on U.S. COVID-19 vaccinations Francesco Pierri1,3, Brea Perry2, Matthew R. DeVerna3, Kai-Cheng Yang3, Alessandro Flammini3, Filippo Menczer3 and John Bryden3* *Corresponding author: [email protected] 1 Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria, Politecnico di Milano, Milano, Italy 2 Department of Sociology, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, United States 3 Observatory on Social Media, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, United States Widespread uptake of COVID-19 vaccines is necessary to achieve herd immunity1–3. However, surveys have found concerning numbers of U.S. adults hesitant or unwilling to be vaccinated4,5. Online misinformation may play an important role in vaccine hesitancy6–8, But we lack a clear picture of the extent to which it will impact vaccination uptake. Here, we study how vaccination rates and vaccine hesitancy are associated with levels of online misinformation about vaccines shared By 1.6 million Twitter users geolocated at the U.S. state and county levels. We find a negative relationship Between misinformation and vaccination uptake rates. Online misinformation is also correlated with vaccine hesitancy rates taken from survey data. Associations Between vaccine outcomes and misinformation remain significant when accounting for political as well as demographic and socioeconomic factors. While vaccine hesitancy is strongly associated with RepuBlican vote share, we observe that the effect of online misinformation on hesitancy is strongest across Democratic rather than Republican counties. These results suggest that addressing online misinformation must Be a key component of interventions aimed to maximize the effectiveness of vaccination campaigns. Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic has killed over 3 million people and infected 140 million worldwide as of April 20219.

  • COVID's Lessons for Global Higher Education
    COVID’s Lessons for Global Higher Education Coping with the Present while Building a More Equitable Future By Jamil Salmi November 2020 Foreword This report was written over the course of the first six months of the pandemic, roughly from March to October 2020. During and since that time, much has transpired in terms of the pandemic and its implications for the world. As of mid-November 2020, there have been over 58 million cases of COVID-19 worldwide, the global death toll is close to 1.5 million, and the virus continues to spread faster than ever before in many countries. The International Monetary Fund recently released its annual report underscoring the “uncertain outlook” and the likelihood of a deep global recession—a prediction backed widely by economists around the world.* Our international well-being has never felt so fragile for most of us alive today. Amid this backdrop, the international perspective—which this report offers— is critical to our under- standing of emerging trends, issues, and priorities in higher education. Author Jamil Salmi thoroughly catalogs the global issues in higher education that have been caused—or in some cases just intensified—by the pandemic. He offers insight into what is working and not working in very different contexts across the globe, and summarizes lessons learned for higher education leaders and policymakers at the institutional and national levels. Perhaps, most importantly, this study shines a light on the specific hardships encountered by racially and socio- economically minoritized populations around the world, deepening systemic inequities in higher education. For instance, the move to online learning and assessment has layered on yet another challenge for students who lack affordable access to reliable internet service and devices.
