CatholicVote Education Speaking Out on Mandate Misinformation
How can we make sense of varied vaccine mandate messages?
EP004: Josh Hochschild
While teaching undergraduates and seminarians at Mount St. Mary's University, he received many questions about the Church's views on vaccine mandates and religious exemptions. This led Josh to share his ideas publicly in the classroom and on social media to overcome misunderstandings and misinformation. Josh also discusses his research into how students can find peace amid distractions from digital technology.
