We hope you all enjoyed the Easter Holidays and ANZAC Day with your families and friends. The recent flood events and on-going Covid-19 pandemic continue to create challenges for everyone, including health systems. We acknowledge the stress this causes and hope we can provide some relief at work with our solutions. Here’s to having a heathy, dry, and pleasant Autumn season.

Influenza 2022
According to Health Services Executive in Ireland,1 “The best way to prevent influenza is to get the flu vaccine. Flu vaccine is a safe, effective way to help prevent influenza infection, avoid hospitalisation, and reduce influenza related deaths and illnesses. Vaccination of healthcare workers has been shown to reduce influenza-related deaths by 40%“. 
The Austratlian Immunisation Handbook and the 2022 Advice on Seasonal Influenza may help guide your next requirement. 

If you are interested in tracking and validating influenza vaccines (and COVID 19 boosters) – Cgov can help. Cgov has a live integration with the AIR (Australian Immunisation Register) which can link to credentialing or staff health records.
