Webinar //

Date:

Aug 28 2019, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EST

Description

With the recent outbreaks of measles across the U.S., ensuring parents have access to accurate and credible information about vaccines is key to increasing vaccine acceptance. As a trusted source of information about vaccines, healthcare professionals can play a key role in establishing trust and educating parents and patients on the important role that vaccines play in protecting against serious diseases.

In this Public Health Foundation webinar, practicing health care professionals will share their evidence-based strategies for recommending vaccines and addressing vaccine hesitancy in their practice. Amanda Cohn, MD, Acting Chief Medical Officer, Vaccine Policy, Preparedness, Global Health in CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, will provide opening remarks about the agency’s efforts to address vaccine misinformation and the important role that healthcare professionals can play in addressing vaccine misinformation.
