CDC Webinar - Improving Routine, Influenza, and COVID-19 Vaccination This Winter 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM

Mon December 06
CDC Webinar - Improving Routine, Influenza, and COVID-19 Vaccination This Winter 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM

Please join the Public Health Foundation (PHF) for a webinar featuring immunization experts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) during National Influenza Vaccination Week on December 6^th at 2pm EST.

The webinar is free and open to all, but registration is required. Please visit the PHF website to learn more about this event and register today.

Description

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance for all individuals to be up-to-date on their routine vaccinations, as well as their annual influenza vaccine. Many children fell behind on routine vaccines and well-child visits during the pandemic. Routine, influenza, and COVID-19 vaccines are essential to helping children, families, and communities stay healthy.

Influenza vaccination remains a critical strategy to decrease the burden on our healthcare system by reducing influenza-related doctor visits and hospitalizations, as well as decreasing the number of people who will need influenza diagnostic testing.

Objectives

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

· Discuss benefits of late-season flu vaccination

· Discuss vaccination coadministration

· Describe the importance of catching up on routine childhood vaccinations

· Discuss new pediatric COVID-19 vaccination for children ages 5-11 years

· Obtain additional resources to help guide patients

Presenters

· Bess Davenport, MPH, Health Communication Specialist, Influenza Division, NCIRD, CDC

· Amanda Carnes, MPH, Health Communication Specialist, Office of the Director, NCIRD CDC (currently deployed as the Pediatric Communications Lead, CDC COVID-19 Vaccine Task Force)

St. Clair County Suicide Prevention Alliance Meeting 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM

Dear SPA Members,

We’ve had a busy fall and will use our December meeting to review planning efforts for the coming year. Please think of activities that you would find helpful and like to participate in for 2022. Renewed marketing and identifying training opportunities are two that come to mind for me. We should also have ample opportunity for service/agency updates from our members.

If you have any items to add to the agenda, please let me know.

Thank you.
