[MCOH-EH] MCOH-EH Digest - Mandatory flu vaccination

[Harriman, Kathleen (CDPH-CID-DCDC-IMM)]

I thought you might be interested in this slide presentation on influenza vaccination that was given by Mark Loeb at the 2017 National Adult and Influenza Immunization Summit in May: 

Herd Immunity: Reviewing the Impact of Vaccinating Children and Healthcare Workers to Protect Others
https://www.izsummitpartners.org/content/uploads/2017/05/11d-1_Loeb_Herd-Immunity-Impact-of-Vaccinating-Children-and-HCWs.pdf

Good morning colleagues,

For those facilities with mandatory flu vaccination programs effective in the 2017 immunization season: you may be interested in this CIDRAP article from earlier this year (I didn't see it in the listserv archives):

Health worker flu vaccine data insufficient to show protection for patients <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.cidrap.umn.edu_news-2Dperspective_2017_01_health-2Dworker-2Dflu-2Dvaccine-2Ddata-2Dinsufficient-2Dshow-2Dprotection-2Dpatients&d=DwICAg&c=Lr0a7ed3egkbwePCNW4ROg&r=hTSNVGl_lH1D3dMZRBGXOXL32T66SSgFMVt6rTw8dYc&m=nfTJfhyGZSDJ7QE2U1c0KK5vBHrnyqf7Irh1_6DKx0k&s=-ADgIO0UMTT2TjcAvx4dlFJypWp_7FDkI03WkHjxj-E&e= >
