Rising rates of vaccine hesitancy can result in an increasing number of cases, morbidity, and mortality from vaccine-preventable diseases. This program describes the impact of vaccine hesitancy, the role of healthcare professionals (HCPs) in supporting vaccine uptake, and strategies to address potential patient concerns about COVID-19 vaccines. The aim of this program is to support clinicians’ efforts in engaging their vaccine-hesitant patients in in open and meaningful conversations, with the goal of optimizing vaccine uptake in clinical practice.
