You may be tired of hearing about influenza and Covid-19 (who isn’t?), but the reality is that the viral landscape is ever-evolving, and so there is important new information to be aware of.
CARP recently hosted four regional webinars with experts who will answer these questions and more:
- What’s new with both flu and COVID strains and vaccines?
- Influenza vaccine and COVID vaccine and boosters: when to get them and how long do they last?
- Information on the latest NACI recommended high dose vaccine for most of our members (65+)
- Flu outbreaks and COVID outbreaks. Protecting yourself from both. What to do if you are infected?
- What is the current best practice and why does the advice seem to be changing regularly?
- Dispelling myths and fears.
- Shingles and Pneumonia vaccines. When and how can I protect myself?
Watch them all. Each of our experts, whether family physician, professor, or public health expert bring different perspectives to the same critical topic.
