“…Pharmacy participants will complete similar survey instruments before (baseline) and after their assigned training elements, as well as a follow-up instrument 6 months after all training is completed. The survey will be based on a previously published instrument 8,9 and include the following instruments (point of administration):…”

“…6,7 Similarly, data from 2020 show that adults at high risk of invasive pneumococcal disease are not regularly vaccinated against this disease after being deemed high risk, again with several social determinants associated with higher and lower odds of vaccination. 8,9 Considering these observations and the inability to achieve national vaccine-related goals, novel approaches to promote vaccine confidence are needed. These approaches will need to consider how health-system factors (e.g., access, provider recommendations), community factors (e.g., social norms, socioeconomics), and the influence of media and political coverage of COVID-19 have affected individual-and grouplevel vaccine attitudes.…”

Background: Central to effective public health policy and practice is the trust between the population served and the governmental body leading health efforts, but that trust has eroded in the years preceding the pandemic. Vaccine hesitancy among adults is also a growing concern across the United States. Recent data suggest that the trustworthiness of information about the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine was a larger concern than the vaccine's adverse effects or risks.Objective: This study aims to describe the methods used to create a public health microinfluencer social media vaccine confidence campaign for the COVID-19 vaccine in underserved Tennessee communities. A secondary objective is to describe how the Social-Ecological Model (SEM) and Social Cognitive Theory may address vaccine hesitancy using community pharmacies. Methods: In late 2020, 50 independent community pharmacies in underserved communities across Tennessee were involved in a public health project with the

Background: Health Literacy (HL) has been recently hypothesized to affect the relationship between socio-economic status (SES) and health conditions. However, to date no study has yet assessed the potential contribution of HL in the pathway through which SES affects influenza vaccination status. We aim to examine the relationships among HL, SES factors, and influenza vaccination uptake in Tuscan (Italy) residents belonging to different high-risk groups (HRGs) for influenza. Methods: The study was performed within the Tuscan population sample selected in the Italian Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System in 2017–2018. HL was assessed using the Italian version of the 6-items European Health Literacy Survey Questionnaire (HLS-EU-Q6). Mediation analyses were conducted using SES variables as independent variables, influenza vaccination status as dependent variable and HL as mediator variable. Results: A total of 3278 people belonged to HRGs for influenza. In the whole sample, 19.4% of the participants were vaccinated against influenza. Participants who were not employed or had a poor financial status were more likely to be vaccinated against influenza (OR 1.56, 95%CI 1.26–1.94, p < 0.001, and OR 1.21, 95%CI 1.00–1.48, p = 0.047 respectively). HL did not mediate the relationship of any of the independent variables with influenza vaccination status. Conclusions: Some SES determinants resulted to influence influenza vaccination uptake, while HL did not affect the likelihood of influenza vaccination uptake among HRGs. Universal health care systems, as in the case of Italy, offering influenza vaccination free of charge to HRGs help in reducing inequalities and mitigating HL demands.

“…4 Racial and socioeconomic disparities in vaccine uptake further complicate the implementation of pneumococcal vaccination programs. [4][5][6] ■ Brief history of pneumococcal vaccines The first pneumococcal vaccine, licensed in 1977, was a polysaccharide vaccine that contained purifi ed capsular polysaccharide antigens of 14 serotypes of S. pneumoniae. 7 In 1983, a 23-valent version was licensed to replace the 14-valent formulation, and we now know this vaccine as PPSV23.…”

“…Specific social determinants of health have been linked with lower pneumococcal vaccination rates as well. Gatwood and colleagues found significantly lower vaccination rates in areas with higher poverty and with limited internet access 6. McLaughlin and colleagues reported low vaccination uptake among individuals with low socioeconomic status, individuals with low educational status, and individuals living in rural and inner-city urban areas 5…”
