Calling all nurses! The Race to 200M

Posted over 3 years ago

Calling all nurses! We’re participating in a national, multichannel education campaign to encourage Americans to get their flu vaccination! As nurses, we know how important flu shots are. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, flu vaccination this season is more critical than ever.

The campaign is called The Race to 200M. Why 200M? For those who are most at risk for flu and its complications – Americans 50 years of age or older, as well as people living with chronic diseases, such as heart disease, respiratory disease, and diabetes – no less than 200 million
Americans should be getting the flu vaccine each year.

Through this campaign, we’ll help reduce the risk of flu and the associated burden of flu illness, healthcare visits, hospitalizations and related toll on the healthcare system to conserve medical resources for the care of people afflicted with COVID-19. Visit TheRaceto200M.com and the Facebook page to see the campaign in action!

We encourage you to participate, share content, and reach out to find out how you can do more to help drive flu vaccinations this flu season.
