“Shot in the Arm,” a documentary aimed at exploring the phenomenon of vaccine hesitancy, is available to watch for free until Sunday night, Nov. 5, courtesy of the film’s partner, Rockland County Department of Health.
Produced by Scott Hamilton Kennedy and Neil deGrasse Tyson, “Shot in the Arm” features prominent public health experts like Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Paul Offit, and famed leaders of the anti-vaccine movement to investigate the role of disinformation in today’s vaccine landscape.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
