As in general said that not every one knows the art of teaching so it applies in communication too.

The video is an example that how doctor is using simple examples and words to make a layman understand how the vaccine works and it build the immunity in the body to attack the virus that our body identifies.

How a complex pattern is made simple and understandable for all.

This video is a useful way to put out reliable information about social issues that establishes intellectual leadership and provides people with verified content that they can engage with and share. I like that they had placed a Doctor to answer the questions in the video, so you see that it's coming from a subject-matter expert. The format of the video following a Q&A sequence that allows the expert to introduce and break down main concepts. I also liked that she kept repeating her main message about how powerful our immune system is with vaccination.

An attempt is made in the video to explain the way vaccines work in providing immunity and fighting infections and diseases.

Dr. Katharine O Brien, World Health Organization Director of Immunization, Vaccines and Biologicals, is providing an explanation as an expert but using words and details in way that ordinary people can relate to the information and understand the need for vaccination.

The key messages or sets of information being provided by Kate include:

1) What are vaccines and what they do.
2) How they work in our body and how they are developed.
3) Different approaches that have been used for developing the COVID-19 vaccines, and the relative advantages.
4) Safety of the vaccines and why they are not a threat.

The over-arching purpose of the video is to counter misinformation with scientific facts and logic, and reduce vaccine hesitancy due to misinformation and lack of correct information.

The video does a great job at addressing many people's questions and concerns about the COVID-19 vaccines by letting an expert as the authority of the information, and using a very easy to understand language. An expert talking in a WHO-produced video should have more credibility than a random person saying nonsense.

# data[].attributes.body
The scientific concepts were transmitted without using any jargon or complex wording, in a very understandable way for a large part of people.
The messenger or the communicator, is introduced as a doctor who works for WHO, a main global health promotion agency.
The message was disseminated to share verified and authenticated information on the vaccines and how they work to protect our bodies against the viruses and to counter fake news and claims that were spread against vaccinations.

The scientific concepts were presented in a simple, clear to the point way. It's easy for almost everyone to understand the key concepts, as the speaker is using a simple language and completely avoids jargon or scientific terms that may be hard for some audience groups to understand.
The message is being presented by a WHO expert, so it's a credible source who's also able to communicate effectively to convey the message.

The speaker is an expert who is communicating her message in simple terms. However, I don't see the format as appealing to many audiences. Perhaps a TED ed format would be more appealing to wider audiences than a 5 minute bland interview.

In this video the scientific concepts are being communicated in a very simplified and understandable manner and without jargon. The speaker is sharing facts, based on evidence and research. The information is reliable and from reputable sources.

WHO’s Dr. Katherine O’Brien is explaining or transmitting these messages in the video to inform people on how vaccines work with our body to protect us and what are the different approaches we are hearing now about vaccines and how they protect us against diseases. She was speaking on WHO’s Science on 5 conversation platform on science, and was being facilitated by Vismita Gupta-Smith, from WHO communications Team.

Scientific concepts in the video are being communicated in simple language that is easy for people to understand. It is also being communicated using illustrations that people can relate to. The absence of jargon makes the language easier to understand. The message is being conveyed by a medical doctor who is an expert and this makes the information credible and from a trusted source.

In this video there is an expert speaking this is good. There is an attempt to use simple language that the majority of people ought to be able to understand. It will only reach those who are followers of WHO's Science in 5 however. Unless it is disseminated through mainstream media platforms some people will not be reached.

# data[].attributes.body
The scientific concepts are being communicated by an expert to a common person in simplest possible manner and without using scientific jargons. It is senior WHO Official, a scientist, who is answering questions from a lay person in a way that is understandable to everyone.

The behind Science in 5 was to answer all possible questions that general population might have about COVID-19 across the board.

Science should be accessible – it was the basic premise of these short videos so that people do not fall for rumours and fake information.

I am not sure the concepts were explained that simply. The messaging would be clear to an audience completing at least secondary level education. It may be a message specifically for those who tune into WHO Science in 5 or follow science-based programmes.

So good that a Dr is communicating the information and a communications professional is asking the "burning" questions that it is felt the public are asking as well as those that need to be asked.
I think Bermudan Dr. Ramon Arscott using the analogy and use of hand drawn images of army, police cells, lock-up, capture, villain and different outfits to demonstrate the covid-19 original strain and variants helped me to better picture and understand the virus, how it infects, how the vaccine helps our body to detect and fight it -

I think this video was shared to fight misinformation about the effectiveness of the vaccines. Many people were scared to get the vaccine because of the misleading information stating that vaccines have a negative effect on people's health. The scientific concept was communicated by an expert in the World Health Organization, who explained very clearly in a simple way without using jargon how vaccines work so people don't hesitate to get it.

Helena Guiliche|RCO Mozambique The communication takes place between two actors, one who asks the questions on behalf of the information seeker and the WHO immunization specialist. Key questions were selected that are part of the biggest doubts about the effectiveness of the covid-19 vaccine compared to other vaccines that did not suffer much skepticism leading to combat  the fears and reluctance to be vaccinated. I can consider this video as an excellent source of information, especially for those who are still reluctant to take the covid-19 vaccine because it manages to transform concepts of pure science to a communicative level. In this video WHO managed to instill trust.

The communication takes place between two people - a lay person, probably a journalist or communication officer and a medical doctor who is a WHO representative. The set up is done in a video message where a select number of questions are designed to inform the general public and stakeholders are asked and then the doctor breaks them down in layman's language, totally without jargon.
Because this is recorded, it is easy to share with others to keep them informed and safe from COVID-19.
I liked the closing when the journalist reinforced the reminder for people to stick to science.

Thank you.

Scientific concepts are communicated in clear simple terms to make the information about COVID19 and vaccines more accessible and understandable to everyone. A WHO doctor/representative is used in the explainer because of her expertise on the subject matter and the implicit trust built in by her profession.

# data[].attributes.body
The information about COVID-19 vaccines was intended for the general public using a doctor to on pass the information during an interview with a journalist. Experts are usually used for communicating on science issues because they are more trusted.

I understand the questions asked by the journalist are prepared to answer the goals of communication previously identified, starting with the most important information in the first question. The doctor is avoiding jargon, being relatable and sticking to the questions asked. However the video ends up being long.

# data[].attributes.body
The general public (target audience) who decide to watch this video want to know more about COVID-19 vaccines, variants and doses and want to know how WHO research and knowledge impacts their lives / societies. This communication was done through a video, a presenter asking questions, answered by a specialist - it was done through an Q&A, whereby the expert broke down the technical concepts in layman language.  WHO used an doctor / expert to instill trust.

I assume WHO has mapped out the communication goals such as: to educate, to advocate, to raise awareness, to build trust, or to be part of a dialogue ... Ensuring that the information is backed by scientific concepts and evidence.
While she tried her best to explain in simplified terms, I feel that if she had used visuals in addition to her spoken presentation it would have been more effective. Also, 5+ min is very long to stay engaged when it comes to scientific concepts. Perhaps it would have been better to break it down in 3 videos / are support with animation/visuals to make it more engaging and memorable. (just sharing my 2 cents...)
