FROM ADA ICON - Many news reports are focusing on vaccines and the ONU HealthWise Pharmacy is receiving questions related to vaccine development. Here s a detailed vaccine explanation from Karen Kier, pharmacist and member of the ONU faculty.
In light of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) emergency approval of the COVID-19 vaccine, some members of the public may be concerned about receiving the vaccine.
This concern can sometimes be described as vaccine hesitancy. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines this as “the delay in acceptance or refusal of vaccines despite availability of vaccination services.” (www.who.int/immunization)
