As the flu season approaches, it becomes increasingly important to equip ourselves with knowledge about the impact of influenza and the significance of vaccination, especially for the vulnerable older adult population. Join us for an informative and insightful webinar where Dr. Mark Loeb and Dr. Gregory Hammond present the pertinent facts about the burden of influenza and the essential role of vaccines to prevent infection, plus practical suggestions to help guide patients' decisions on vaccine selection.

  1. Understand the burden of influenza and its consequences on the older adult population (65+ years)
  2. Recognize different types of influenza vaccines available and the NACI recommendations for the 2023-2024 season
  3. Discuss different influenza vaccine recommendations based on evidence-based recommendations
  4. Improve decision-making on influenza vaccines using clinical case studies, and develop skills in counseling and managing side effects


You will be able to submit questions during this live event.
