Healthcare Matters, Season 3 - Episode 7
The COVID-19 pandemic led to an increased role of pharmacies in the overall immunization process, as they served as key sites of administration for COVID-19 vaccines.
The IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science and the Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF) released a report today to better understand the trends in vaccine administration in the United States.
“[The report is] built into the evidence of how we can address equity, where patients want to get their care, and what are the policy solutions that are important for us to pursue to make our healthcare system more equitable among everyone” says Dr. Robert Popovian, Chief Science Policy Officer at GHLF.
In this episode, Dr. Popovian discusses the key findings of the report, from the enhanced role of pharmacies in the overall immunization process in the U.S. to the differences in vaccine administration site by gender, income, or race.
