If RSV Vaccines Are Approved for Older Adults, What’s Next?

Episode 210 Published 3 years, 4 months ago
Description

An RSV vaccine, if approved, may reduce disease burden in older adults. In this recap of the most common questions from a symposium at the Family Medicine Experience 2022 conference, listen as we discuss when an RSV vaccine may be approved and how to overcome barriers to the implementation of vaccines for older adults in primary care settings.

Hear answer to questions such as:

  • When might potential RSV vaccines be available, and when might the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices make recommendations on their use?
  • How will the vaccine roll out? Who would receive the vaccine first?
  • If approved, what will the RSV vaccination schedule be?
  • How can we overcome vaccine hesitancy?
