About this event

In the spring of 2019, Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Scott Hamilton Kennedy began investigating a global measles epidemic. He filmed with both top public health officials working to halt the epidemic and ‘anti-vaxxers’ who were persuading millions of parents to refuse vaccines for their children. Then COVID-19 happened. Acting quickly, Kennedy shifted his focus to this once-in-a-century tragedy. Both skeptical and hopeful, Shot in the Arm, executive produced by Neil deGrasse Tyson, asks one of the most pressing questions of our time: can we replace cynicism with healthy curiosity and bridge the divides that make us sick?

Panel discussion to follow with moderator Mary Rachel Henderson, Senior Program Coordinator, Emory Center for Ethics.
