Overview
Although more than a hundred years have passed since the 1918 influenza pandemic, the haunting similarities to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic serve as a reminder of the necessity to maintain effective influenza prevention and treatment efforts, particularly during annual flu seasons. This monograph activity contains text, infographics, tables, and case studies to review influenza prevention and treatment.
Objectives
- Explain the importance of every eligible patient receiving an influenza vaccination.
- Choose an appropriate evidence-based communication style to communicate with vaccine hesitant patients.
- Identify tools to recruit patients to get their influenza vaccination.
- Contrast efficacy and benefits of antiviral treatment for influenza vs. non-treatment.
- Select appropriate patients for antiviral treatment and chemoprophylaxis with antivirals.
- Identify methods for differentiating influenza from SARS-CoV-2 and other influenza like illness including testing.
