If the CDC and the medical profession can barely persuade 3/4 of the workers get vaccinated and 40% vaccinate for COVID… Then the evidence is clear that past practice is fundamentally flawed.
Overall, 76.3% of HCP reported having received an influenza vaccine and 40.2% reported receiving the 2024–25 COVID-19 vaccine
We call that *outreach*.
