Adult Vaccinations Global Campaign

Kindly complete the survey below

The International Federation on Ageing has created a global campaign to better understand the uptake of adult vaccinations and to promote awareness of the importance of vaccinations throughout the life course.

Immunization is a core component of the human right to health, a standard element in any effective, preventative public health approach, and an individual, community, and governmental responsibility. Current advocacy efforts to promote the importance of immunization have focused primarily on children, yet there is a grave lack of awareness about the fact that older people are equally, if not more vulnerable to the spread of infectious diseases.

Take the survey today and get involved in the social media campaign for a chance to win $150! #Vaccine4Life
