The COVID-19 pandemic has hit the healthcare community hard, particularly in the world of pediatric and adolescent vaccinations. The World Health Organization states that more than 25 million children have missed one or more of their routine vaccinations and that we have just seen the biggest backslide in pediatric vaccinations in more than 30 years. We have also seen an increase in vaccination hesitancy and refusals, even from parents who were previously vaccine advocates. This session will focus on the latest update of ACIP vaccine recommendations for children and adolescents. In addition, a discussion of strategies to increase vaccination rates through the system and personalized approaches. Last, language which can increase vaccine updates will also be discussed.
