Redesigned VaccineInformation.org website
Immunize.org has been offering a website for the public for many years. Located at VaccineInformation.org, the site has always presented information in a straightforward manner. However, it recently underwent a makeover. In addition to its updated look, the site now includes new pages related to COVID-19, mpox, RSV and dengue vaccines.
Check out the updated site today.
Are your patients aware that they can sign up for V-safe?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) uses the V-safe program to regularly check in on recipients of new vaccines. V-safe is currently enrolling the following groups:
- Anyone 6 months and older who got the 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine
- Pregnant people who got the RSV vaccine, ABRYSVO
- Adults 60 years and older who got either of two licensed RSV vaccines
The CDC offers a series of patient-friendly materials about the V-safe program for healthcare providers to use.
VIEW-hub report released
The International Vaccine Access Center (IVAC) at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health recently released the 2024 “VIEW-hub Report on Global Vaccine Introduction and Implementation.” The purpose of this annual report is to provide information about vaccine introduction and progress around the globe. Nine vaccines of focus include Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), pneumococcal conjugate, rotavirus, inactivated polio, typhoid conjugate, measles (second dose), measles-rubella, HPV and COVID-19 vaccines.
Temperature monitoring video series
The Public Health Foundation (PHF) and the CDC partnered to develop videos about vaccine temperature monitoring. The two videos in the series include:
- How to Monitor Vaccine Temperatures
- What You Need to Know About Vaccine Storage Equipment: Refrigerators, Freezers, and Thermometers
Viewers can access the videos from the PHF website and on YouTube, or if they use the TRAIN Learning Network to track completion of programs, they can access the videos there as well. Find out more.
