Talking About Adult Vaccination Booklet

Did you know that vaccine-preventable illnesses like the flu cause more deaths in American adults each year than either breast cancer or traffic accidents?1

It’s true. But you can do something to change that statistic. Learn more about adult vaccination and share that information with your friends, family and colleagues.

To help you, NEA HIN has developed an informational booklet, Talking About Adult Vaccination, available online or in hardcopy

Download a copy of Talking About Adult Vaccination to learn more.

In addition, you can download, customize, and share with your community a 90 minute Talking About Adult Vaccination Interactive Training

With these materials, you will be able to broaden awareness among education professionals about adult vaccinations, helping them to protect themselves, their schools, and their communities from vaccine-preventable illnesses.       

Talking About Adult Vaccination is a project of the NEA Health Information Network made possible through unrestricted educational grants provided by GlaxoSmithKline.
