local voices and trusted messengers on the safety and efficacy of COVlD-19 vaccinations. Cfhat's why the
Biden-Harris Administration and Department of Health and Hw11ru1 Services is working to partner with
trusted messengers like you to launch the COYlD-19 Community Corps.

COVID 19 Community Corps Pitch TRIS


NJVIP-19
(41<Ut1Ml~ &ffi~
The Pitch Steps

When giving the pitch for the launch we surround it with three main asks:

l. Become a Community Corps Member


a. Community Corps will be a program through the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to share science-based
information cbrectly with community organizations and Americans across the country to
empower them to deliver messages in the fight against COVlD-19 and share the
importance of vaccinations in their community. We believe that your team could help be
the effective trusted messenger we need to get all Americans vaccinated. By becoming a
community corps member, you are showing that you believe in the efforts of getting
everyone vaccinated. As a member, you will receive social media toolkits, fact sheets on
vaccines, and other tools needed to be fully knowledgeable on vaccination efforts.
2. Distribute Content
a. We ask that outside of being a comm11nity corps member that is receiving this
information that you distribute it to your network. We need to send out this information
to as many people as we possibly can. We will work with you and your teams to ensure
we provide the proper toolkits that are applicable/needed to your specific network.
3. Participate in Share the Mic Campaign
a. The idea behind our share the mic campaign is where we want to use your social media
platform and have a health worker use your network to educate them about vaccine
confidence. This could be a live stream, pre-planned video, social media posts, virtual
panels, and more! We wi ll oversee the matching of partners with om health workers and
make sure everyone is looped in on these pairs before confirmed.
b. Example to share: If a celebrity from NOLA wants to partake in getting their followers
educated on vaccines, we would pair them with a doctor fro m NOLA that has been
actively helping with the vaccination process. We would then schedule a live strean1
where the celebrity and doctor answer questions on vaccine hesitancy and more!

Wrap up your asks:

To wrap it up, we would love for you to be a founding member of community corps. We want you to be a
member, distributing content to your network on vaccine confidence, and participating in share the mic.
Could we get your commitment to be a founding member of a program that wi ll help get all Americans
vaccinated?

It is alright if they cannot commit to all three but we do want to try and get a yes on all three as much as
possible.

After the meeting

Following the meeting fill out the COVID Commun.ity Corps Tracker. Once you have finished all of your
confirmations on partners send the updated tracker or list of confirmed partners to
[email protected] . Please ensure the information con.tains: contact's name, email, number, and
status on being a part of CCC.

Type: Note

Hi Michael. Sorry for the delay on my patt. Tt was a crazy week with the J&J news. Yes, attached are two
documents - an overview of the Community Corps and also a new program that we are announcing on
Monday called We Can Do This Live, which l told you a little about when we talked. We know from all
of our research that people become more confidence about the vaccine when they learn more about it
from doctors and have their questions answered. We are asking celebrities and organizations witb large
social followings to join us to pair them with a medical professional to do a social media interaction that
would reach their fan s and followers. Our medical experts don't have the platform that celebrities do and
this is a great way to bring that together and reach their fans with important vaccine info and get their
questions answered.

Would the Recording Academy be interested in being a founding member of We Can Do This Live with
us? We could put you in the press release on Monday and do a series of events with you going
forward . We can have Dr. Fauci, Surgeon General Murthy and others join your stars to do lnstagram or
Facebook Lives, or other fun ways to reach their fans.

We would love to work with you and are open at all ideas. Thanks so much for the call this week and
your openness to working with us to build confidence in the vaccines. Kristina

(Grammy). Kristina oversees the Administration's COVID-19 public educat ion campaign .

The Recording Academy and MusiCares are interested in joining the Community Corps- they'd like to
pass on information and social content to their thousands of musically talented members. The music
industry has been hard hit by COVID-19, so this has been central to their work over the last year, which
is why they are so motivated.

In addition to joining, given the profile and reach of many of their members, there may also be an
opportunity to engage some higher profile members directly, but I'll leave that to the two of you when
you connect.

Hi Michael. Sorry for the delay on my part. Jt was a crazy week with the J&J news. Yes, attached are two
documents -an overview of the Community Corps and also a new program that we are announcing on
Monday called We Can Do This Live, which 1 told you a little about when we talked. We know from aU
of our research that people become more confidence about the vaccine when they learn more about it
from doctors and have their questions answered. We are asking celebrities and organizations with large
social followings to join us to pair them with a medical professional to do a social media interaction that
would reach their fans and followers. Our medical experts don't have the platform that celebrities do and
this is a great way to bring together stars' incredible reach and in1luence with medical experts to provide
important vaccine info and get fans' questions answered.

Would the Recording Academy be interested in being a founding member of We Can Do This Live with
us? We could put you in the press release on Monday and do a series of events w ith you going forward.
We can have Dr. Fauci, Surgeon General Murthy and others join your stars to do 1nstagram or Facebook
Ltves, or other fun ways to reach their fans.

We also have an overall campaign, We Can Do This, that encourage people to get vaccinated. We would
love to have you use that brand and campaign resources in any way. We could work together on social
media videos, or any other activities to reach your artists fans.

We would love to work with you and are open at all ideas. Thanks so much for the call this week and
your openness to working w ith us to build confidence in the vaccines . Kristina

Kristina and Daryl,

I want to introduce the two of you. Daryl is the Chief Advocacy Officer for the Recording Academy
(Grammy). Kristina oversees the Administration's COVID-19 public education campaign.

The Recording Academy and MusiCares are interested in joining the Community Corps- they'd like to
pass on information and social content to their thousands of musically talented members. The music
industry has been hard hit by COVID-19, so this has been central to their work over the last year, which
is why they are so motivated.

In addition to joining, given the profile and reach of tnany of their members, there may also be an
opportunity to engage some higher profile members directly, but I'll leave that to the two of you when
you connect.

COVID-19 National Public Ed ucation Campaign


We Can Do This Engagement: Entertainment Industry

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) launched a national public
education campaign, We Ca11 Do This, to increase confidence and uptake in the COVID-19
vaccines and encourage continued prevention measures, including mask wearing and social
distancing. Through the nationwide effort of consistent, fact-based public health messaging, the
campaign is designed to help Americans make informed decisions about their health and
COVID-19 to protect themselves and their communities.

We have reached a critical point in the pandemic- getting Americans vaccinated as quickly as
possible is our path out of this crisis. To be successful, Americans need to be ready and willing
to roll up their sleeves when the vaccin e is available to them. We recognize the importance of
Americans hearjng from trusted messengers about the effectiveness and need to be confident
when it is their turn to receive the vaccine. We are asking everyone to help us end the pandemic
by reaching out to their com munities to encourage vaccine confidence.

How We Can Help You Do Vaccine Outreach


We know from research that Americans gain confidence in the vaccine when they learn about it
from people they know, recognize, and trust - including their favorite artists, athletes, and
entertainers. HHS is a resource to connecting influential individuals and organizations with
medical experts, the latest scientific information, data, infographics, and any other resource you
need to reach out to your customers and employees to build trust in the COVID-19 vaccines.

Why Use the We Can Do This Campaign?


HHS's national campaign's call to action, We Can Do This, is designed to encourage the country
to rally together with a hopeful, unifying message that emphasizes the power we all must protect
ourselves and our communities through increased vaccination to end the pandemic. All the
campaign's resources and brand are available to be used by any organization that is focused on
building vaccille confidence. Here are several resources and there are more on th e We Can Do

celebrities and influencers - to host conversat1ons with our national public health experts as well
as local medical professionals to ansvver direct questions about COVlD -19, the vaccine. and
provide our target audiences with the information they need to ultimately decide to get
vaccinated. These engagements will constitute our We Can Do This: LJ've progTam and will allow
us to reach into targeted communities. Our goal will be to communicate directly and plainly with
the American public in the places where they consume content online: via content creators,
podcasters, Facebook groups, and more.

Hi Dr. Corbett. We would really appreciate if you would do this one, especially since we you are doing
tbe Instagram takeover of Michelle Obama's account on May 3 we wm push that out to the Community
Corps members so it would be great for you to have already connected with this group. We had more than
2,000 Corps members attend this week's conversation with Dr. Murthy and Dr. Fauci, and expect we will
get a response for Monday's conversation as well. Monday is very important to us since it is the day the
vaccine becomes eligible to all adults so we want to make a big push.

Hi Nicole!

• • No pharma companies are involved.


• • A few of the groups who we will announce as members on Thursday are : the American
Medicql Association, Major League Baseball, NASCAR, Faith in Action, the Farm Bureau, the
Chamber of Commerce, the NAACP, United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Asian/Pacific
Islander American Chamber of Commerce &Entrepreneurship, and National Minority Health
Association. We are building the list now but expect about 75 organizations to be announced on
Thursday.
• • There are no requirements. This is a coalition of organizations and people who are trusted
messengers to their community who want to help us education Americans about the
vaccine. HHS will send the members an email of timely info on the vaccines each week (we can
send It to you for her) because our members need it to communicate with their followers. As
part of Community Corps, we will be doing a Share the Mic program, linking members with large
followings with medical experts to have conversations about the vaccine. Our hope is that she
would do one at some point with either Dr. Fauci or Dr. Corbett.
• • The event with the VP is at 9:15 am ET on Thursday so too early on the west coast! We know
she isn't available on Thursday so will look to do something together in the future if she is
interested.

I manage Kerry's advocacy work at Propper Daley so I can get this ask to her asap. As Greg mentioned,
she has been on a hiatus for March so our communication is somewhat limited. I will do my
absolute best to get you a quick answer, nonetheless!

Before I reach out, a couple quick follow up questions for you:

• • Are any of the pharmaceutical companies involved or supporting this in any way?
• • Who will be in the audience? It would be great if you could share a few more of the member
organizations, who might be joining from their end, and if there are any other folks listening in
to the zoom.
• • Are there any requirements to join the COVID Community Corps? Or is it really just in name for
the announcement and then she can post as information comes up if she would like?

Greg, I already have a request for you! The White House is annou11cing a new initiative on Thursday
called the Covid 19 Community Corps, which is a coalition of organizations and individuals committed to
reaching their fellow Americans with accurate, timely vaccine information and encouraging
vaccination. We are announcing it with a number of organizations as members, including the NAACP,
MLB, NASCAR, National Association of Broadcasters etc. Our goal is to work with organizations with
large memberships and followings to help us reach their networks with vaccine info. We would love to
add a few celebrities to the mix and are wondering if Kerry Washington might be willing to lend her
name to it. That would mean we would include her name on the White House press release on
Thursday, we would send you vaccine information every week in the hopes that she may want to
occasionally post about it, and we would look for ways to do more together going forward.

One part of the Community Corps we will be building out is Share the Mic and thought she would be
amazing to do one with Dr. Fauci or Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett, the researcher behind the Covid vaccine.

We would love it if she would lend her name to the announcement and we could find ways to work
together going forward. Thanks for considering it!

Hi Josh, Kristina-

Charlie and I are putting together a short document for CBOs and faith based organizations on how to
access funds made available through CDC, ACL, HRSA, etc. for vaccine outreach and other community
support.

We want to include a short section on the community corps as well. Can you take a look at the language
below and tell me if this works? If you could also add a sentence or two on what we're asking corps
members to do, we'd appreciate it. Finally, would be great if you could give us the latest numbers as of
today.

Thanks,
Jonathan

Tanya, here were some early notes I bad on structure for your consideration.

Tanya: Leads CCC and Share the Mic


Yvanna/Sabrina Advisors: Yvanna helps with the IEA aspect and Sabrina on behalf of what
Kristina needs done
Sam: Content/Comms
Digital: Corby and Ian's person starts on Monday - she will be a great team member and can
take a ton of the work for the weekly email

On tomoiTow's call with the WH let's define roles. I don't think


I think we should also work with Ben/create a bigger arching plan of teams and who does what
when it comes to COVID-19 Community Corps? Just reading his email seems like WH wants to
lead, Yvanna brought up that we should get clarified: Is this is a HHS led program with WH
support or a led WH initiative with HHS stamped on it? I think it's the first, but with that we
should probably work tomotTow at the meeting how we structure communication and input on all
CCC stuff

Adrian, Mel issa, Josh and W ill- one of our Commun ity Corps members Made to Save is launch a big
campa ign tomorrow that we want to lift up from the White House task force twitter account. We want
to mention three of the other organizations that have joined the Corps too since we announced it last
Thursday. We now have 4000 members so it is a hard to select wh ich ones. A few we flagged for
consideration are the Independence Fund, Red Cross, Big Cit ies Health Coalition, Equality Health, and
Autism Society.

We launched the COVID-19 commun ity corps with 275 founding members. Since then, more t han 4,000
organ izations have signed up. Thanks to @newgroup, @newgroup and @newgroup for joining.

+++

Increasing access to COVID-19 vaccines, empowering communities, and provid ing information in
hardest-hit areas are key to turning a page on the pandemic. That's why we're thri lled by the launch of
ou r new Community Corps member @ltsMadeToSave-to do just that.

Susan, thank you for the call with you and Deborah. I did a call with NAB today and they told
me you had already teed them up to work with us too. Thank you!

Attached is more information about our new COVID 19 Con.ununity Corps program. As we
discussed on the call, we would love to have Disney be a founding member when the White
House announces the program on Thursday, April 1. There may be a virtual event on
announcement day - we will have more details about that soon - but we would love to list you as
a founding member in our press materials.

The attachment explains the Corps program, but one activity we would like to work with you on
right away would be using your talent to participate in Share the Mic., where we would utilize
their social media platforms to feature a health workers to educate their followers about vaccine
confidence. We could figure that out post-announcement, but it would be a great one to do
together.

Hi Jamie. Thank you for writing back. Evaluation Only. Created with Aspose.HTML. Copyright
2013-2020 Aspose Pty Ltd.elease, and then we would love to work with you over the coming
months to develop one great social media moment where we could have her interact with one of
our public health experts about the vaccine. We would of course make that happen whenever it
worked with her schedule. One idea would be to have her do an Instagram Live with Dr. Fauci or
Dr. Corbett, the researcher who led the team that developed the vaccine.

We will announce the Community Corps membership at 6:30am tomorrow via a press release
from the White House, foUowed by a virtual event with Vice President Hanis at 9: 15 am. Groups
that will be announced as members of the Community Corps include NASCAR, MLB}Faith in
Action, SEIU, Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and American Medical Association. 202 groups
have committed to join.

Vice President Harris' team mentioned that they thought she would be a great member of the
Corps given her advocacy on so many important issues. We would love to work with her on
vaccine education and outreach if she is interested.

Thank you for considering this request.

Hi Kristina,
I hope this email finds you well. We work with Eva Longoria here and reviewed the below. Would love to
get a bit more information around what you'd be looking for from her, how she could be most helpful,
as well as other notable folks who are participating. Her production schedule is quite intense over the
coming months as she prepares to direct her first feature film so I'm not sure all of the items that were
included in the attached will be feasible. Please let us know soonest and we will share with her.

Thank you for the call Shawn. Attached is information about a program the White House wifl
announce on Thursday morning via press release, followed by a Zoom event with Vice President
Hanis- the COVID-19 Community Corps. We are asking prominent Americans and
organizations from across the country to join the Corps and act as trusted messengers to reach
out to their memberships and communities with information about the COVJD- 19 vaccine to
encow·age Americans to get vaccinated.

We are at a pi votal point in the pandemic-- getting Americans vaccinated as quickly as possible
is the path out of this crisis. But to be successful, people must be ready and willing to roll up
their sleeves when the vaccine is available to them. We recognize the importance of people
across the country hearing from local voices and trusted messengers on the safety and efficacy of
COVID-1 9 vaccinations and are asking p~ominent Americans. to help us.

The Vice President's office specifically mentioned Eva Longoria as someone who they would
like to j oin

The request is to lend us their name for the announcement, and then we would love to work
together on creative ideas to engage their followers in the coming :months. One idea we would
love to explore with both of them is doing an Instagram Live with Dr. Fauci or Dr. Corbett, the
researcher who lead the team to develop the vaccine. We will send their tearns weekly updates
on the latest scientific and medical updates, FA.Qs about the vaccine, social media suggestions,
infographics, factsheets with timely, accurate information so they feel well informed, but our
main request will be to build a few unique social engagements with them.

Vice President Harris is doing a Zoom to kick off the Community Corps at 9: 15 am ET on
Thursday. If they would like to join we would of course love it A few of the organizations that
have signed up to be announced on Thursday are NASCAR, Faith in Action, the American
Medical Association, and the Chamber of Commerce.

Thank you for considering this request.

Hi Kristina,

Thank you so much for participating in the event tomorrow at 2 pm EDT. We ask that
you join us around 1:30pm EDT to ensure you are able to access the zoom
platform. Please use this li nk to join our webinar. We are excited for you to be
joining us and hundreds of small business owners to talk about the importance of
getting vaccinated.

Ahead of the webinar for background purposes, please feel free to take a look at this
article which discusses the impact of small businesses being a central influencer to
helping with economic recovery and being essential to rapid and far-reaching
vaccination strategy.

September Production 169

You will be speaking toward the beginning of the call which is the launch of our
Reimagine Main Street Small Business Vaccine Leader campaign (logistic
information is below). The goal of the campaign is to engage with small business
owners, specifically business owners of color, as trusted members of their
communities and harness that trust to increase vaccine access, bolster vaccine
confidence, and promote vaccine equity. Since you are the first speaker we would
love for you to set the stage on all the important vaccine news and developments.
Here are some suggested points that would be useful to the audience:

• Set the context for all exciting activities and developments from the
Administration (e.g., vaccines are safe and effective, new 100-day goal,
National Public Health Week, Administration's work to expand the number of
vaccination sites).

• Speak to the importance of small businesses in reaching the goals set,


including the private sector and business owners to help with public education
on the COVID-19 vaccines.

• Talk about the Community Corps and give some ideas for how people
can help with vaccine efforts. As a reminder Reimagine Main Street is a
founding member of the Community Corps, and today we are announcing
hundreds of small business owners that have signed a pledge to be Small
Business Vaccine Leaders. These small business owners have pledged to do a
number of activities, such as getting the vaccine when it is their turn and letting
others know why they chose to be vaccinated, providing incentives to
employees to get vaccinated, and continuing to follow guidelines for masking
and social distancing.

We are also releasing the results of a survey tomorrow. Reimagine Main Street and
its partners theU.S Black Chambers, Inc., theUnited States Hispanic Chamber of
Commerce, andNational ACE fielded a national survey from February 3- March 23,
2021 , to fill the gap in insights into attitudes and preferences of small employers,
especially AAPI-, Black-, Hispanic- and Native-owned small businesses. Here are
the key takeaways that might be helpful as you prepare your remarks.

• Vaccines are on the Minds of Most Small Employers &Their


Employees: The majority of small employers (64%) say it is very important
that their employees get vaccinated and more than half of small employers say
their workers are turning to them with questions. More than 80% of small
employers report having informal conversations with their workers abo.ut
vaccines and more than half (56%) of small employers in the survey have had
formal conversations including staff meetings, and one-on-ones with
employees.

• Small Employers Want Employees to Get Vaccinated so They Can Get


Back to Business; Willing to Help Make it Happen: The majority (83%) of
respondents are willing to encourage and incentivize employees to get

September Production 170


Obtained via FOIA by Judicial Watch Inc.

vaccinated, with AAPI and Black small employers most likely to act. Almost one
in five (19%) of all small employer respondents intend to mandate the vaccine
for their employees. More than one in four (45%) small employers plan to give
workers paid time off to get vaccinated, rising to more than half (53%) of AAPI
small employers.

• Small Employers Want Science-Based Guidance for Employees and


Community; Eager to Work with Trusted Partners: More than half (55%) of
respondents say they would use free or low-cost resources to provide guidance
and information about COVID-19 vaccines with the CDC and FDA the top two
preferred sources for information. More than one quarter (27%) of all
respondents are not currently working with the local health department or
chamber of commerce on pandemic response but wou ld like to be.

ABOUT REIMAGINE MAIN STREET

communities thrive and the benefits ripple throughout the economy. We are a multi-

COVID-19 Community Corps

What is the COVID-19 Commtmity Corps?


The COVID-19 Community Corps is a program through the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services and Centers for Disease ContTol and Prevention to share science-based infmmation directly with
community organizations and Americans across the country to empower them to deliver messages in the
fight against COVID-19 and share the imp011ance of vaccinations in their community.

The mission of Communhy Corps


The Commtmity Corps will be comprised of trusted voices in communities across the country, and the
Administration will regularly share updated public health infonnation and resources for them to use wiU1
their communities to help get friends , family, and followers vaccinated. The program will provide toolkits
and resources for Community Corps members to organize within their networks, communities, and more
to help build vaccine confidence throughout the country. Community Corps members will receive
weekly updates on the latest scientific and medical updates, FAQs about the vaccine, social media
suggestions, infographics, fact sheets with timely, accurate infonnatioo, and tools on ways to help people
get registered and vaccinated.

What are Community Corps members asked to do


As a member, you'll receive timely, accurate information to share with your fami ly, friends, and
neighbors. By encouraging them to get vaccinated, you 'll help protect them - and allow all of us to safely
gather together again. As a Corps member, you'll get resources to help you build vaccine confidence in
your community, including:

Wby is it important you join us?


We are at a pivotal point in the pandemic-- getting Americans vaccinated as quickly as possible is tl1e

the vaccine is available to them. We recognize the importance of people across the country bearing from
local voices and trusted messengers on the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccinations. That's wby the
Biden-Harris Administration and Department of Health and Human Services is working to pattner with
ttusted messengers like you to launch the COVID-19 Community Corps.

Biden administration builds volunteer network to boost vaccine confidence


Politico II Adam Cancryn
03/30/2021 01:08 PM EDT

September Production 215


Obtained via FOIA by Judicial Watch Inc.

The Biden administration is creating a network of outside health experts and community leaders
charged with building trust in coronavirus vaccines, as the shots become available to the entire adult
population, according to documents obtained by POLITLCO.

The all-volunteer group- dubbed the Covid-19 Community Corps- would amplify the government's
vaccine messaging within their own communities, and lead on-the-ground efforts to combat skepticism
and misinformation.

The new program, set to be unveiled Thursday, comes as the administration's focus shifts from
expanding supply of the shots to ensuring people seek them out as soon as they're able.

HHS and the CDC will oversee the initiative, which will provide the volunteers with weekly factsheets,
FAQs and other talking po ints that they'd be expected to promote on social media and distribute within
their own networks.

The group's members will also participate in virtual events aimed at building vaccine confidence, and
eventually host their own vaccination drives, according to fact sheet sent to health experts and medical
surrogates.

"The Covid-19 Community Corps will be an effort to galvanize trusted messengers- doctors, nurses,
faith leaders, rural stakeholders, leaders across the country ln local communities - to encourage people
to get vaccinated," White House Covid response official Ben Wakana wrote in an accompanying
message obtained by POLITICO that encouraged them to become "found ing members."

Neither HHS nor the White House would comment on how many Corps members the admlnistratlon is
hoping to recruit, or who it has already slgned up.

But the effort is part of the administration's broader push to target specific vaccine-skeptical
populations and recruit messengers who can convince Americans to get the shots. Those messengers
are likely to include a range of organizations and people both inside and outside health care with ties to
key communities.

Polls show there is still stubborn resistance to vaccinations across various racial and ethnic lines,
including among African-Americahs and Latihos -as well as rural conservatives who may be less
ihclined to listen to Biden administration officials.

Federal officials have met privately for weeks with various community groups to discuss the vaccine
rollout and the resources needed to encourage people to get the shots .

The Corps' planned public rollout comes days after the government. debuted a broader "We Can Do
This" vaccination campaign designed to boost confidence with the shots. Corps members are likely to be
among the key faces of that effort.

The administration last week also pledged to funnel $10 billion from its $1.9 tri llion Covid aid package to
ramp up vaccinations in hard-hit and underserved communities and shore up t rust.

Hi Jamie. Thank you for writing back. A ll we are looking for tomorrow is to lend her name to
the White House press release, and then we would Jove to work with you over the coming
months to develop one great social media moment where we could have her interact with one of
our public health experts about the vaccine. \Ve would of course make that happen whenever It
worked with her schedule. One idea would be to have her do an Instagram Live with Dr. Fauci or
Dr. Corbett, the researcher who led the team that developed the vaccine.

We will rumounce the Community Corps membership at 6:30am tomorrow via a press release
from the White House, followed by a virtual event with Vice President Harris at 9:15 am. Groups
that wi ll be announced as members of the Community Corps include NASCAR, MLB, Faith in
Action, SEIU, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the American Medical Association. 202
groups have committed to join.

Vice President Hanis' team mentioned that they thought she would be a great member of the
Corps given her advocacy on so many important issues. We would .love to work with her on
vaccine education and outreach if she is interested.

Thank you for considering this request.

Thank you for the call Shawn. Attached is information about a program the White House will
announce on Thursday morning via press release, followed by a Zoom event with Vice President
Hanis- the COVID- 19 Community Corps. We are asking prominent Americans and
organizations from across the country to join the Corps and act as trusted messengers to reach
out to their memberships and communities with information about the COVJD-19 vaccine to
encourage Americans to get vaccinated.

We are at a pivotal point in the pandemic-- getting Americans vaccinated as quickly as possible
is the path out of this crisis. But to be successful, people must be ready and willing to roll up

The Vice President's office specifically mentioned Eva Longoria as someone who they would
like to join

The request is to lend us their name tor the annotmcement, and then we would love to work
together on creative ideas to engage their followers in the coming months. One idea we would
love to explore with both of them is doing an Instagram Live with Dr. Fauci or Dr. Corbett, the
researcher who lead the team to develop the vaccine. We will send their teams weekly updates
on tbe latest scientific and medical updates, FAQs about the vaccine, social media suggestions,
infographics, factsheets with timely, accurate infonnation so they feel weJJ informed, but our
main request will be to build a few unique soc ial engagements with them.

Vice Presi dent Han-is is doing a Zoom to kick offthe Community Corps at 9:15am ET on

COVID-19 Nat ional Public Educat ion Campaign


We Can Do This Engagement Ideas

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) launched a national public
education campaign, We Ca11 Do This, to increase confidence and uptake in the COVJD-19
vaccines and encourage continued prevention measures, including mask wearing and social
distancing. Through the nationwide effort of consistent, fact-based public health messaging, the
campaign is designed to help Americans make informed decisions about their health and
COVID-19 to protect themselves and their communities.

We have reached a critical point in the pandemic- getting Americans vaccinated as quickly as
possible is our path out of this crisis. To be successful, Americans need to be ready and wiUing
to roll up their sleeves when the vaccin e is available to them. We recognize the importance of
Americans hearing from trusted messengers about the effectiveness and need to be confident
when it is their turn to receive the vaccine. We are asking everyone to help us end the pandemic
by reaching out to their communities to encourage vaccine confidence.

How We Can Help You Do Vaccine Outreach


We know from research that Americans gain confidence in the vaccine when they learn about it
from organizations they know and trust, including businesses. HHS is a resource to provide
medical experts, the latest scientific information, data, infographics, and any other resource you

celebrities and int1uencers- to host conversations with our national public health experts as well
as local medical professionals to answer direct questions about COVID-19, the vaccine, and
provide our target audiences with the information they need to ultimately decide to get
vaccinated. These engagements will constitute our "Sk1re the Mic' program and wiJJ allow us to

Challenge
• Vaccine hesitancy among parents was on the rise before COVID-19. One in four parents in the
United States reported in 2019 serious concerns about vaccinating their children (Pediatrics,
2019)Post-COVID hesitancy persists: Divides across age, political affiliation, education, & income
levels: Younger parents are more reluctant to vaccinate-27°/o of those ages 18-29 vs. 54°/o among
parents ages 45-54 (Yahoo/YouGov, April 2021 )39°/o of Black parents say they will "definitely" or
"probably" vaccinate their children, lower than Hispanic parents (53°/o), American Indian/Alaska
Native (AI/AN) parents (61 °/o), White parents (65°/o), and Asian American/Pacific Islander (AAPI}
parents (75°/o) (ParentsTogether, 2021)Democrats are more likely (61°/o) than Republicans (36o/o) to
have their children vaccinated; Independents are the least likely (25°/o) (Yahoo/YouGov, April
2021 )Households with annual incomes less than $50K are less likely (29°/o) than those with
incomes over $100K (63°/o) to have their children vaccinated (Yahoo/YouGov, April 2021)

Challenges
• Adolescent cohort lacks strong vaccine infrastructure-and faces immediate
barriers to COVID-19 vaccination. Parents and HCPs view vaccines as less of a
priority for older adolescents, competing with teen concerns like anxiety,
depression , online bullying, social pressuresConsent requirements can make it
difficult to vaccinate unaccompanied adolescentsSummer camp and sports
physicals starting soon-requirements could focus on other vaccinesChildren are
required for herd immunity: 22°/o of the U.S. population are under 18 years old
(U.S. Census, 2020)

COVID-19 vaccine authorization


for adolescents is imminent.

• Currently authorized for youth ages 16+U .S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) considering authorization for 12-15-year-
olds-May/June timeframe expectedCiinical trials underway for
ages 6 months to 11 years-authorization for these cohorts
estimated early 2022 (ages 5-11) and late 2022 (infants and
toddlers)

Parents are cautious about COVID-19 immunizations


-for themselves and their children.

• About half of parents say they will vaccinate their children (National Parents Union Survey,
2021 ):35°/o of parents say they want their children to be vaccinated immediately25°/o say they'll
vaccinate their children but not right away22°/o say they will not get their children
vaccinated Parents are 17°/o less likely to say they will definitely or probably vaccinate their
children-compared to their plans to vaccinate themselves (Parents Together, 2021)

In the effort to vaccinate Americans, children and


adolescents matte~ and parents are the gatekeepers.
• Children are directly impacted by COVID-19:Recent studies by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) show that COVID-19 infections are as much as 13x higher
than reported in children and adolescents (CDC, 2020)More than 13,500 kids in the U.S.
have been hospitalized, and 268 have died (AAP, March 2021 )Rates of hospitalization are
five times higher among African American children and eight times higher among Latino
kids than in White children (CDC)Since May 2020, 3.185 kids in the United States have
developed multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C); 36 have died (CDC,
2021 )Children are required for herd immunity:22°/o of the U.S. population are under 18
years old (U.S. Census, 2020)With more adults refusing vaccines, it's more important to
vaccinate kids (Atlantic, April 2021 )Moms are the lead on health care-and the
decisionmakers on adolescent vaccination.

Parents Media Consumption-Age 35-49


• In order to understand the media usage behavior of parents with children that are age 12-15,
we pulled a custom MRI tabulation for parents age 35-49. Parents age 35-49 are the closest
age categories in the MRI dataset to the typical age range for mothers of current 12-15 year-
olds.ln 2005, The median age of mothers in the United States at the birth of their child is 271.
Therefor, the median age of mothers of 12-15 year-olds is 39-41.

Johnson & Joh nson

Emergent Contamination

Did the contamination at Emergent impact the 150M doses the company already produced (62M of which are
J&J)?

• No doses have gone out to the American people from th is facili ty yet, and before any doses will be
released, th ere will be a thorough FDA review to ensure safety and quality.
• This is true of all EUA vaccines: nothing goes out to the public without FDA authorization, which follows a
rigorous review of safety and quality.
• J&J now has fu ll operational responsibllrty for this facllfty, and we worked w fth AZ to move their
production elsewhere t o focus the facflfty on one vaccfne alone to avoid any f uture mix-ups .
• As we have sa id before, the company continues to work through issues w ith FDA and nothing from this
faci lity would go out without FDA authorization.

What happened with the 15 million ruined doses and what are you doing about it?
• No vaccine manufactured at t he Baltimore facllity has been used in U.S. vaccination efforts so far,
because the faci lity has yet to be authorized by FDA.

• J&J is instal ling a new senior leadership team to oversee all aspects of production and manufacturing at
the Emergent facility.

• J&J will have fu ll responsibi lity for the operations, production, and manufacturing of the facility.
o J&J continues to work through manufacturing issues w ith the FDA, and no product wil l come out
of the Baltimore facility without authorization by FDA. This is a critica l part of ensuring quality and
safety of vaccine product.

• Johnson & Johnson does not expect this to impact their overall commitment to provide nearly 100 mi ll ion
doses by the end of May. And we are on track to have enough vaccine supply for all adu lts by the end of
May.

AstraZeneca

• In order for J&J to t ake full responsibility for the Baltimore facil ity, HHS worked with AstraZeneca to move
its production out, so the facility ca n excl usively focus on manufacturing J&J vaccine.

• Working closely with FDA, HHS determined Tt was most appropriate to limit the facility to production of
one vaccine.

• The administration is working with AZ to immed iately identify other facilities to continue their domestic
manufacturing of AZ drug substance, and several options o;~re under consideration.

Enough Vaccine for All Americans

How are you going to meet your goal of enough vocdnefor all adult Americans by the end of May?

1
September Production 343
Obtained via FOIA by Judicial Watch Inc.

• There are 255 million adult Americans.


o There are 263M Americans eligible g1ven that Pfizer can be used in 16 yr old+
• Moderna and Pfizer are on track to deliver enough doses for 200 million people by the end of May.
• J&J has reiterated that in addition to the 20 million they've already delivered, they're on pace to deliver at
or near the lOOM by the end of May.
• All of that adds up to a number well in excess of the amount we need.

Pace of J&J

What's up with the pace of J&J doses. Is there J&J specific hesitancy that needs to be overcome?

• We believe J&J is being well received across the country as a third effective and safe vaccine.

• This is not unexpected. We know that some states opted to spread out J&J distribution over a longer
period of time because we were clear w ith them that J&J doses wou ld be limited for the first few weeks"

• So, we will monitor how states and federa l partners perform in next week as supply has increased .

Vaccine Hotspots

More Allocation
Will you send more doses to hotspots?

• We're working with CDC to identify hotspots.

• We're there to support states. And we are accelerating our vaccinations program.

• ff a state is experiencing a spike In cases, we (and CDC) are working with states to
A) Identify hot spots and factors contributing to these spikes
B) Assess mitigation measures lh place and amplify these measures
C) Examine the deployment of vaccinations across the state to determine tf changes are heeded to
reach hfgh ly impacted communities.

• For example, our team including CDC is engaged with Michigan's health team to help identify actions to
stop the spread including:
o Targeted vaccinations efforts,
o Increased testing resources,
o And additional mitigation strategies

• As to additiona l vaccines- everything is on the table.

Mtchtgan
How are you helping states experiencing surges like Mfchfgan?

We have a menu of options :


• Testing Surges : CDC has offered to pilot implementation of twice a week home testing of high school
athletes. CDC has offered to set up a new PCR or BINAX testing facility at a testing dessert.

September Production 344

• Personnel on site in outbreak areas: CDC has offered assistance with an outbreak among staff and
incarcerated individuals at Ionia Bellamy Correction Facility and the nearby community; CDC is rostering a
team to respond
• Increasing Vaccination Sites: HHS working to get additional M ich igan FQHCs online as part of our FQHC
vacci nat ions program, focused in hard-hit areas.
• Therapeutrcs: HHS is working to sca le up dellvery of therapeutics t o M ichigan

CDC Tr-avel Guidance

• CDC has a responsibility to update its gu idance and inform the tens of millions of Americans w ho have
been fu lly vaccinated on the latest science showing what t hey can do safely,

• The evidence is clear: vaccines are effective. CDC has announced that travel for fu lly vaccinated people is
low risk.
o Within the United Stat es, fully vaccinated people can travel without COVID-19 testing or post-
travel self -qua rantine.
o Vaccinated t ravelers should cont inue to take COVID-19 precautions: wear a mask, avoid crowds,
socia lly distancing, and washing hands f requently.

• However, given the rising cases and spread of varia nts and the large num ber of Americans yet to be
vacci nated, the CDC Director continues to encou rage people to avoid un necessary travel at this moment.
o Past surges of COVID-19 cases in the US have followed larger surges in travel.
o New vi rus variants have spread globally and in the U.S. through travel.

• This is one of the many reasons to get vaccinat ed. Vaccines offers an opportunity to return to normal life.
We're working hard t o get everyone vaccinated as fast as possible, but we're not there yet - the vast
majority of people still need to be vaccinated. So now isn't the time to let down our guard.

Immigration

Crowd1ng at Facil ities

Aren't you concerned about crowding at UAC facilities?


• As we have sa id repeated ly, a Border Patrol facil ity is no place for a child.

• We have been working around the clock, in coordination with HHS, to quickly move unaccompanied
children out of these crowded Border Patrol stations and into the care of HHS so they can be placed with
fa mily members or other sponsors.

• We deployed FEMA to help HH S quickly bu11d additiona l capacity to shelter unaccompanied ch ildren.

• We also developed and deployed a plan for HHS to more quickly place unaccompan ied children with
family members.

• We are seeing progress, but it takes time.

September Production 345

• Let me be clear: the border is not open, people should not make the dangerous journey, and we will
continue to expel Ind ivid uals and families.

Testi r~g
Why does DHS nottest all adults entering the country illegally?

• On t he vast majority of the southwest border - Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and Ca lifornia - testing takes
place.

o We have ramped up partnerships with local NGOs to ensure testing takes place for migrants
entering t he country.
o Unaccompan ied Children crossing the border are processed through HHS facilities and tested .
o Migrants entering ICE facilities are tested, and they are quarantined if they test positive.

• DHS Is eager to get additional funding into the hands of the local public healt h officials in Texas.

o Our policy is to coordinat e with local governments and NGOs to ensure test ing for migrants is
available and that steps for Isolation, quarantining and medica l care can be taken should it be
needed.

Vaccine Verification

• Let me be clear, the government is not now nor will we be supporting a system t hat requires Americans
to carry a credential.

• There will be no federa l vacclnations database and no federa l ma ndate requirlng everyone to obtain a
single vaccinatton credent ia l.

• As these t ools are being considered by t he private and non-profit sectors, our interest is simple:
Americans' privacy and rights should be prot ected so these systems are not used against people unfa irly.

• If pushed:

o There have been questions raised about privacy, accessibility, and affordability, and our goal Is to
make sure that Americans' privacy is secure and protected.

Su rg1ng Cases I States Reopening

Why ore you not doing more to stop states from reopening?

• We know people are tired .

• Our advice is clear - now is not the time to let ou r guard down and relax proven public hea lth measures.

o We must recomm it to taki ng the steps we know work to prevent the spread as we continue to
sca le up our vaccination efforts.

September Production 346

• The President is doing everything he can -100 Day Mask Challenge


o Mask mandate on federal land and buildings
o Mask mandate on interstate travel
o POTtJS uses every opportunity to remind us not to let down our guard

• If a state is experiencing a spike in cases, we (and CDC) are working with states to :
A) Identify hot spots and factors contributing to these spike
B) Assess mitigation measures in place and amplify these measure
C) Examine the deployment of vaccinations across the state to determ ine if changes are needed to
reach high ly impacted communities.

• As to additiona l all ocations of vaccines- everything is on the table.

• Bottom li ne, we need everyone to continue to be vigilant as we work to vaccinate the country.

r ublic Ed ucation Campa ign

• We know t he most important thing we can do is invest in trusted messengers across t he country.

• That's why we launched the COVID-19 Community Corps - our program to get fact-based messages into
the hands of local messengers - more than 2,700 organizations have signed up so far.

• We' re also investing $3B to states and community-based organizations to strengthen vaccine confidence
in the highest-risk and hardest hit communities. This funding could go to:
o Faith-based organizations t o conduct door-to-door outreach
o Commun ity health workers who do culturally-competent bilingua l hea lth outreach
o Disabil ity organizations to ensure people have transportation to sites

• We're ramping up paid media efforts -- in multiple languages -- to match supply.

Reaching Conservatives

What are you doing to reach conservatives?

• The President's goal is to vaccinate all Americans, not just those who voted for him.

• We know we need to meet everyone where they are with trusted messengers, and that includes
conservatives. That's why we're engaged with:

o Faith Leaders: Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins hosted an event with evangelical leaders to discuss the
vaccine and how we can partner with them. Dr. Francis Coll ins has participated in The 700 Club.
Dr. Nunez-Smith hosted a faith leaders roundtable.
o Rural Leaders like the Farm Bureau .
o Doctors: Eighty~one percent of Republicans said they would trust their own doctor or hea lth care
provider to provide reliable information about a COVID-19 vaccine. That's why we' re engaged
with the America n Medical Association, Family Physicians Association, and American College of
Physicians.

o Media and Enterta inment Industry: We've run PSAs with Deadliest Catch. We're engaged w ith
NASCAR and Country Music TV. We've participated in Q&A with Hugh Hewitt, the Bulwark and
Fox News.

• And to help meet conservatives where they are, we're expa nding mobi le clin ics in rural areas t o reach
people where they are.

Global

Global - Vaccine Sharing

• The President's first priority is to take care of the American people.


o We are a coun try t hat has suffered over half a million deaths, more t ha n any country in the
world.
o And given the unpredictabil ity of t his virus, we must be prepared for a variety of scenarios.

• However, as we get increasing confidence that we have enough vaccine, we will look at options for
sharing doses globally, including through COVAX .

• In the meantime, we've already ta ken significant steps. Under the President's direction, the U.S. has :
o Re-engaged with the WHO on Day 1.
o Comm itted to providing the most fund ing to COVAX of any other country in t he world - with $4 8.
This gives money to developing countries to purchase V<lccine.

o Annou nced with our Quad partners that we are working t o ach ieve expanded manufactu ring of
s.afe and effective COVJD-19 vaccines at facil ities in India. This boosts production globa lly.

If pushed

• As we get increasfng confidence t hat we have enough vaccfne, we wlll explore optlons for sharlng doses
wit h the rest of the world.

• The U.S. is one ofthe hard est hit countries in the world by t hi s pandem ic and we stil l have millions of
more people to vaccinat e.

• We are sti ll accelerating our own vacci nation campaign and are trying to reach as many people as quickly
as possible while preparing f or a variety of scena rios as we battle variants

Global- Drug company IP sharing

• The top priority of the United States is saving lives and ending the pandemic in the United States and
arou nd the world .

• This includes investing in COVAX and working with partners, as we announced w ith the Quad, to su rge
vacci ne prod uction and delivery.

• As part of rebuilding our alliances, we are exploring every avenue to coordi nat e with our global partners
and are eva luating the efficacy of any measure by its true potential to save lives.

Global- WHO .Origins Report

• Our experts continue to evaluate the WHO report. We have dedicated hundreds of collective hours to its
review.

• What Is clear from our review thus far is that the report lacks cr-ucla l dat a, lnformatlon, and access. It
represents a partial and incomplete picture.

• We urge the WHO to ensure the second phase of this study commences without furt her delay, includ ing
in China, in a way th at respect s and adheres to principles of transparency and openness, is expert-led and
free from interference.

• We will continue to work constructively with t he WHO and conti nue to focus on our mission at home -
encouraging Americans to mask up, socially distance, and get vaccinated as soon as it's your turn.

What do you want to happen next?

• The next phase of t his study must be swift, led entirely by a team of experts and conducted w ithout
int erference from China . Thei r access to original dat a must be guara nteed, and their deliberations must
be transparent, expert-led, and t imely.

• These studies should include additional follow-up in Chi na, should explore all hypotheses, includ ing t he
need for studies of animals to f ind the means of introduction into humans, and must include access to
origina l data.

FEMA Reimbursement Fund ing


How does the new FEMA funding differ from ED's $1228 funding for K-12 schools from ARP?
• The FEMA funding is open to a broader array of settings like child care centers, domestic violence
shelters, and hea lth care faci lities- in addition to K-12 schools.

• The ED fund ing covers a much broader set of services such as afterschool programs, tutoring, mental
health services, WiFi hotspots for students, and hi ring more teachers.

• Timing of when states can access the funds also differs-- ED funding comes In advance of a cost incurred
and FEMA is generally reimbursed only after the state/school pays for a product or service.

• While there is some overlap (both f und PPE, cleaning, and physica l barriers for example), that is by
design. It's a once in a century pandemic and states and schools need maximum flexibility to get kids back
in school.

FEMASites

• The sites are not dosing. States are taking over maintenance of the sites and t he federal government will
continue to pay for t he resources at each sites.

• We committed to these sites being in place for 8 weeks. We offered to extend the site beyond t hat 8
week period, for 4 addit ional weeks. A number of states have taken us up on that offer.

o That includes full staffi ng and f und ing, with vaccine supply comi ng from the state.

• We are incredibly proud of these sites, which have delivered more than 2 mil lion shots- 65% to people of
color.

Merck

• I'm not going to comment on an ongoing investigation from an incident in 2017.


• I will say that Merck is one of t he world's largest vaccine man ufacturers.
o The partnershi p with J&J has the potential to significantly increase the J&J vaccine output.
o As part of the partnership between Merck and J&J , they are totally retrofitting and updating
Merck' s plant in Durham.
• That said, any doses coming out of that Facility wou ld be cleared through a rigorous FDA process.

Moderna Vial Size

How will the Moderna news impact your overall goals?

• This is encouraging news. It's another tool in our toolbox and gives the company additional options as it
manufactu res millions of doses.
• As the President said, we'll have enough supply for every adult in America by the end of May.
• Moderna rema ins on track to meet its goal of 200 m ill ion doses by t he end of May, and we w il l continue
t o work closely with the company.

September Production 350

Website

Can you tell us more about the website? Why wait until May 1?

• We know it has been frustrating for people to find a vaccine.

• Much of that has been due to supply constraints but there are also too many w ebsites an d cal l centers
that aren't working as t hey should.

• And w e w ill lau nch a federa l webstte by May 1 When all Americans are eligtble. This websit e wil l help
people fi nd vaccination locations convenient to them.

• As all Americans are made eligible in May, we are also plann ing t o have a 1~800 number available f or
individuals who do not have easy access to the int ernet to find a vaccine.

Why not until May 1?

• We are piloting the program now and focused on helping states improve t heir own websites as supply
ramps up.

• We will fully launch on May 1st when all Americans w ill be eligible.

Equity

Racial disparities are persistent in vaccine administration and getting worse. What are you doing about it?

• Black and brown communities ha rdest hit by the pa ndemic.

• That's why we've set up channels to he lp ensure Black and brown communities have equitable access to
t he vaccine. We' re sending vaccine directly to :
o Mobi le Units are meeting people where they are.
o Comm unity Hea lth Centers that serve 60% people of color, expanding eligibility to 85%
o Pharmacies in local neighborhoods. More than 25% of pha rmacy doses have been administered
in high -risk commu nities.

• We're giving communities resources.


o We're providing $250M in local gra nts th rough the HHS Office of Minority Hea lth to encourage
COVID-19 safety and vaccinations among underserved populations.

• We're accelerating that work


o $68 to Commun ity Health Cent ers
o Dialysis pa rtnerships
o $330M for Community Health Workers

• And we w il l continue to acceler<1te our efforts to ensure a fair ·and equitable response.

On Florida's pop-up vaccine clinics -

September Production 351
Obtained via FOIA by Judicial Watch Inc.

• We take equity seriously and keep it at the center of our response.


• If you look at the data, 17% of Florida's population is Black, but less than 7% of vaccinations have gone to
African Americans in the state.
• That's one reason why we opened 4 FEMA sites- in Miami, Tampa, Jacksonville, and Orlando. These sites
disproportionately serve communities of color.
• In the weeks ahead, we will be working with the state of Florida to ensure they take our best practices in
reaching communities hardest hit by this pandemic and apply them statewide.

New Goal

Why no progress on average shots per day? The goal doesn't seem very ambitious?

• When we put out our 100M shots goal, it was considered too ambitions.
o No one considered 200M shots In 100 days possible.

• Now, we will have enough supply for all Americans by the end of May.
o By April19, 90% of Americans will be eligible and 90% of Americans will be within 5 miles of a
vaccine.

• 200 million shots in 100 days is double our original goal.


o And, we have to do the second hundred much faster than the first 100 million

• When we hit our new goa l, more than half of adu lts in Americans will have received their first shot.
o That's only about a month away.

l.SM shol/day average

Will you increase your average shots per day going forward?

• We are doubling our original goa l -- 200 million shots in 100 days.

• 2.5 million shots per day is a pace we need to maintain, and it's a record that we will continue to bui ld on .

• We may see an uptick in the average daily shots as supply continues to increase and states respond to the
President's directive to open up eligibility to all Americans no later than May 1.

Low Demnnd

Are you hitting a wall on demand?

• We're averaging more than 2.5M shot s per day. That is a strong pace and it enables to meet the
President's goa l of 200M shots in 100 days.

o At that polnt, more than half of the adult population will have one shot by day 100.

• We know there are tens of millions of people out in the country who are ready to step up and get
vaccinated when it's their turn .

1 Dose vs 2 Doses

Based on CDC's new evidence that the first shot gives 80%. protection, shouldn't we just focus on getting 1 dose to
as many people as possible rather than the current strategy for 2 doses?

• No. It is vital that everyone get their second dose of the Modern a or Pfizer vaccines.

• While these new data on the effectiveness of the first dose are encouraging, we do not know the
durability of the protection after a single dose.

• We know t hat the second dose provides even greater protection and we want to make sure that people
get as robust an immune response as possible glven the rise in concerning va rl ants in the U.S.

• Importantly, FDA has authorized the two-dose vaccine series and has not authorized a single dose for
these vaccines.

• Final ly, the supply of available vaccines in the U.S. is ramping up substantially, allowing us to keep a focus
on getting as many people fu lly vaccinat ed as quickly as possible without having to postpone the 2nd dose.

• It takes some t ime for the data to roll in, but we're encouraged by the results we were seeing. We hope
to have more to say next week.

CDC Data Tracker

Why does CDC data not match the companies being close to targets?

• CDC data tracker shows doses that have been ordered and delivered.

• CDC data tracker does not show overall vaccfne allocations, and it does not show doses released to the
U.S. government, which is what Pffzer, Moderna, and J&J base thelr targets on.

• We are working to make the publicly available allocations more complete so folks have a clearer picture
of exactly how many doses have been allocated by the USG each week.

Hi Kristina,

Starting a list of discussion points as we work to get you up to speed! I know that Josh has the paid
marketing side of the campaign well in hand, and that that will be your major focus until it gets rolled
out. But there are several other pieces we are planning to include that I expect you'll be intimately
involved with. See below.

This list is mainly a reminder for me . I'm cc'ing Leni and Sabrina, who are our team's two special
assistants and each have a role in the above. I'm thinking that Sabrina will be working with you closely
and Leni will also engage as needed.

Thanks,

COVID-19 National Public Education Campaign


We Can Do This Engagement: Entertainment Industry

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) launched a national public
education campaign, We Ca11 Do This, to increase confidence and uptake in the COVJD-19
vaccines and encourage continued prevention measures, including mask wearing and social
distancing. Through the nationwide effort of consistent, fact-based public health messaging, the
campaign is designed to help Americans make informed decisions about their health and
COVID-19 to protect themselves and their communities.

We have reached a critical point in the pandemic - getting Americans vaccinated as quickly as
possible is our path out of this crisis. To be successful, Americans need to be ready and wiUing
to roll up their sleeves when the vaccin e is available to them. We recognize the importance of
Americans hearjng from trusted messengers about the effectiveness and need to be confident
when it is their turn to receive the vaccine. We are asking everyone to help us end the pandemic
by reaching out to their communities to encourage vaccine confid ence.

"We Can Do This" Campaign


HHS's national campaign's call to action, We Can Do This, is designed to encourage the country
to rally together with a hopeful, unifying message that emphasizes the power we all must protect
ourselves and our communities through increased vaccination to end the pandemic. All the
campaign's resources and brand are available to be used by any organization that is focused on
building vaccine confidence. Here are several resources md there are more on the We Can Do
Tllis website -
• Brand resources and guideline, go here.
• We Can Do This Campaign Toolkit, go here.
• Recent Ads from the Campaign, go here .

How We Can Help You Do Vaccine Outreach


We know from research that Americans gain confidence in the vaccine when they learn about it
from people they know, recognize, and trust - including their favorite artists, athletes, and
entertainers. HHS is a resource to connecting influential individuals and organizations with
medical experts, the latest scientific information, FAQs, and resources that you need when
reachi11g out to your customers and employees to build trust in the COVID -19 vaccines.

·we hope to reach audiences who don' t follow our official accounts to spread the messages of
vaccine confidence. This is an opportunity for celebrities and influencers to connect with some of
the nation's leading public health e>..'perts and to h elp us reach our goal of communicating
directly and plainly with the American public on the topic of COVID-19 vaccination.

Specific Ideas on Ways the Entertainment Industry Can Help Build Vaccine Confidence
• Provide talent with information needed to join and support the We Can Do This
campa1gn.
• Connect talent with the resources needed to create engaging content that increases
vaccine confidence.
• I ntegrate We Can Do This into scripted a nd unscripted programm ing, if and when
possible.
• Allow characters from scripted programming to be used in high-quality content
promoting vaccine confidence.
• Donate production resources to expanding vaccine awareness.
• Work with talent to provide "giveaway experiences" (e.g. fan meet-and-greets) for those
who are vaccinated.
• Amplify artists social media posts on vaccine safety and receiving their vaccine. Lead your
teams or network to also post on social media about receiving their vaccine and the
importance of being vaccinated.
• Work with formal and informal artist networks to expand participation in the We Can Do
This Campaign.
• H elp artists who rely on live events for their art and livelihoods convey the message that
the soone r everyone's vaccinated, the sooner we can have concerts and shows again.

Join HHS's COVID-19 Community Corps


The COVID-19 Community Corps is a nationwide. grassroots network of voices people know
and trust to encourage Americans to get vaccinated. More than three hundred key organizations
and thousands of individuals are joining the ranks every day to help increase vaccine confidence
and timely vaccination against COVID-19 in theii communities. HHS provides all Corps
members with regular, timely public health information via a range of activities, from weekly
emails, to local and national events, to sharable social media and digital content.

Over the coming months, the COVID~ 19 Public Education Campaign Team at HHS along with
the COVID-19 Response Team at the White House will be working together with prominent
members of the COVID-19 Community Corps - organizations with large social followings,
celebrities and influencers - to host conversations with our national public health experts as well
as local medical professionals to answer direct questions about COVID-19, the vaccine, and
provide our target audiences with the information they need to ultimately decide to get
vaccinated. These engagements wiJl constitute our We Can Do This: Live program and will allow
us to reach into targeted communities. Our goal will be to communicate directly and plainly with
the American public in the places where they consume content online: via content creators,
podcasters, Facebook groups, and more.

Share th.e Mic Program Plan

Statement of Purpose
Over the coming months, the COVID-19 Publi'c Education Campaign Team at HHS along with
the COVTD-19 Response Team at the White House will be working together with prominent
members of the COVID-19 Com.tmmity Corps- celebrities and influencers - to host
conversations with our national public health experts as well as local medical professionals to
answer direct questions about COVID- 19, the vaccine, and provide our target audiences w'ith the
information they need to ultimately decide to get vaccinated. These engagements wi.ll constitute
om "Share the Mic" program and will allow us to reach into targeted communities, defined as:

• White conservatives- (young and old)


• African Americans (young and old)
• Latinos (young and old)
• YOl.lllg People
• General Market

Our goal will be to communicate ditectly and plainly with the Ametican public in the places
where they consume content online: via content creators, podcasters, Facebook groups, and
more.

Cadence
Each week, we will set a goal of two or three "Share the Mic'' engagements targeting at least one
ofthese communities. We will report b&ck each week on our reach and impact.

Often, these will take the form of interviews, but we will also work directly with creators to
produce videos and written interviews as well.

Targeting
• White Conservatives: To reach this community, we will target Facebook communities.
faith leaders, and sports figures.
o Some examples:
• N ASCAR dti vers
• Faith Leaders
• Franklin Grabrun
• Joyce Meyer
• Joel Osteen
• Country music singers
• NFL players
• African American: We'll target African Americans of all ages with differing strategies.
However, we ' ll focus on creators, tiktokers, meme pages, and communities, leveraging
the equity angle of our work and the safety of each of our three authorized vaccines.
o Some examples:

September Production 365

• Rickey Thompson (a multi-channel comedian and actor)


• Tabitha Brown (a weliness influencer with wide reach)
• The Shade Room (a celebtity gossip Instagram with 22 million followers)
• Jackie Aina (a beauty blogger with 4 million subscribers on YouTube)

• Latino: We'll engage Latinos of all ages via a variety of content creators, focusing on
Facebook and Tnstagram for an older demo, and then Youtube, celebrities and TikTok for
younger.
o Some examples:
• Pero Like (A Buzzfeed production with l million followers)
• Being Latino (a rneme fnstagram with 1 million followers)
• BadBunny
• Lele Pons·

• Young: For general audience young people, we wi II target endemic content creators, with
a particular focus on Youtube, and TikTok.
o Some examples:
• Tyler Oakley
• Charli Damilio
• Hank Green
• Glozeli Greene

• General: fn addition to the above audiences, we will seek to have a few wide-audience
digital engagements featming some of our more prominent sun-ogates and principals.
o Some examples:
• Michelle Obama Share the Mic with Dr. Walensky
• FLOTUS and Dr. WaJensky work with family bloggers to answer kids'
questions on COVID-19

Implementation
The Share the .Mic team will check in twice a week- at the top of each week to make sure all
engagements for the upcoming week are locked or almost locked and at the end of each week to
plan ahead for the following week's engagements and start to book doctors and influencers for
these conversations.
• The Share the Mic Team: Tanya Hamburger, K ristina Schake, Clarke Humphrey, Adrian
Saenz, and Ben Wakana
o Tanya, Kristina, and Clarke will lead on recruiting participants and coordinating
logistics sunounding the digital engagement with our public health experts or
other medical professionals and the celebrities or influencers with whom they ' ll
be speaking
o Adrian and Ben will lead on securing talent and medical professionals beyond our
national public health experts for these engagements
• Process:
o The team will meet on Friday's and all requests are submitted, Monday sent
through review process, and all is approved by Tuesday. This allows adequate

time to promote and uplift the event. The team will also meet Wednesdays for
check-in and updates on action items.

F ormats
• Live conversation or event via Facebook Live or Instagram Live or streamed live via
Zoom that can then be shared across HHS channels, the medical professionals' channels,
and the channels of the person sharing the mic.
• Pre-recorded conversation that the video team at HHS will edit and produce for
distribution on HHS channels, the medical professionals' channels, and the channels of
the person sharing the mic.
• Podcast appearances
• Op-ed or account takeover

Necessary Resources
In order to fully realize the potential of this program we' U need to ensure we have the capacity to
do the following:
• Edit videos - likely using a video producer within HHS or the White House if there is
absolutely no HHS capacity
• Produce graphics - likely using a graphic designer we can use to promote the events
ahead of time across our social channels
• Map out which celebrities and influencers appeal to our target audiences and which
medical professionals will be the best to pair with them- ideally working with someone
who has experience in social media with an expertise in potential talent we can tap for
these engagements

Metrics
Our goal with Share the .Mic events is to reach the audiences who don't follow our official
accounts. Therefore, we wm track total reach and video views for each event. We 'll work with
our celebrity and influencer partners to ensure they're reporting metrics back to us that we'll
collate and circulate internally on a weekly basis.

In addition, we plan to track success through the number of reg'istrations we receive after each
event for COVlD-19 Community Corps. After every event we will ask all viewers to take
specific action and be involved with receiving up to date information from the Department of
Health and Human Services by signing up at https://wecandothis.bl1s.gov/covidcmnmunitycorps
The goal is 5,000 sign ups after each event. If the influencer celebrity has a following of over
1OM, the goal is I 0,000-20,000 registrations. We will ask each celebrity/influencer/health expert
to post the event on their social media cha1mels to make the ask of their followers to join CCC.
