GameChangers: Is Measles Back?
GameChangers: Is Measles Back?
With pockets of measles outbreaks throughout the country, we discuss the reasons and strategize ways pharmacy can impact vaccination rates in their communities.
THE GAMECHANGER: Measles was essentially eliminated from the US in 2000. Now, we are seeing a resurgence of outbreaks that have prompted the CDC to issue warnings and reminders of the importance of proper vaccination.
Upon successful completion of this course, learners should be able to:
1. Describe the CDC warning about the increased incidence of measles
2. Discuss ways pharmacy can have an impact on increasing vaccination rates and decreasing measles outbreaks
