Dear Pharmacists,
Many of our members are preparing for influenza vaccination season, and these resources might be helpful.
CDC has issued revised Guidance for Planning Vaccination Clinics Held at Satellite, Temporary, or Off-Site Locations (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/admin/mass-clinic-activities/index.html.) The purpose of the guidance is to assist with jurisdictional planning and implementation of satellite, temporary, or off-site vaccination clinics by public and private vaccination organizations.
The guidance is broken down into four categories:
Planning activities (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/admin/mass-clinic-activities/planning-activities.html)
Pre-clinic activities (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/admin/mass-clinic-activities/pre-clinic-activities.html)
During the clinic activities (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/admin/mass-clinic-activities/during-clinic-activities.html)
Post-clinic activities (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/admin/mass-clinic-activities/post-clinic-activities.html)
The guidance also provides information on additional considerations that are required during the COVID-19 pandemic, including physical distancing, personal protective equipment (PPE), and enhanced sanitation efforts.
During the next few weeks additional materials will be added to these pages, including a supply list and additional curbside and drive-through clinic guidance.
