Faith community nurses combat vaccine hesitancy, improving public health partnerships for vaccine uptake.
Vaccine hesitancy is an increasing concern as more people pause or defer vaccinations for themselves and their children. A faith community nurse project in a rural Colorado county aimed to counter influenza vaccine hesitancy and improve vaccine uptake by collaborating with the public health department. Promising results among individuals who accepted the flu vaccine at a church vaccination event emphasize the value of faith communities actively seeking partnerships with public health services to increase vaccine uptake.
