Steven Furr, MD, discusses how communication between clinicians and patients is crucial to combatting vaccine hesitancy this upcoming respiratory virus season.

“It is important to make sure that when our patients come in, we check their immunization profile and see if they are up to date on their vaccines. If not, try and get them vaccinated right then and there at their visit,” Steven P. Furr, MD, president of the American Academy of Family Physicians, said to Patient Care Online during a recent discussion on the 2024-2025 respiratory virus season. Dr Furr sat down with Patient Care to discuss the recent updates to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) 2024 Adult Immunization Schedule, how primary care clinicians can effectively address vaccine hesitancy among children and adults, and challenges primary care clinicians may encounter this upcoming season. Details in the video above.
