Flu Vaccination Campaign for Patients 2020 November 2, 2020 General COVID-19, FLU, Public Health Flu Vaccination Campaign for Patients 2020 ACCMA is joining the AMA, CDC, Ad Council, and others to urge flu vaccination amid the COVID-19 pandemic. ACCMA is asking physicians to help increase flu immunization rates this year by encouraging your patients to get vaccinated. This will not only help reduce the spread of the flu, but it will also reduce the burden on our healthcare systems and medical resources while we are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. To assist you, ACCMA has compiled a list of helpful resources you can share with your patients, as well as posters, flyers, and digital media that you can share with your patients. Thank you for doing your part to encourage flu vaccination this fall.
