Abstract

Providing communities with COVID-19 vaccination information is essential for optimizing equitable vaccine uptake. Using rapid community translation, adapted from Boot Camp Translation, five community teams transcreated COVID-19 vaccination campaigns. Transcreated messaging incorporated community attitudes, culture, and experiences. Using rapid community translation for the promotion of COVID-19 vaccination demonstrates a successful approach to engaging communities most affected by the pandemic to develop messages that reflect community values, assets, and needs, especially when time is of the essence.
