| The Institute of Medicine has stated that we must differentiate patient, physician and health system barriers to adult immunization. This workshop will focus on patient barriers. We will explore why some patients don’t want to be vaccinated and what we can do about it. | |||
| Learning Objectives: After this session, participants should be able to list three reasons why people under 65 for whom flu vaccine is indicated refuse vaccination.
