Abstract
Abstract Effective science communication is essential in public health, as evidenced by the aftermath of the Dengvaxia vaccine controversy in the Philippines, where inadequate communication resulted in widespread vaccine hesitancy. This article highlights the need for improved strategies for communication while examining the implications of inadequate science communication on public health outcomes. It argues for a more engaging and inclusive approach to public health communication, emphasizing that effective communication goes beyond simply disseminating knowledge to include promoting community engagement and conversation. Finally, it advocates for rebuilding trust in public health institutions through better science communication and responsive public health practices by addressing the root causes of public skepticism and improving community involvement.
