Users of the Seesaw experience making a decision, related to the pandemic, which involves trade-offs. For instance, where human challenge trials are approved with potentially life-saving accelerations in vaccine development, healthy participants might accept possibly fatal risks. Users make a choice between two alternative options (represented as the two extremes of a seesaw) and hear about the arguments for each option through prerecorded video clips.
