Hello POP Members!
This week the Washington State Department of Health (DOH) will be hosting a free webinar to review the new pediatric COVID-19 vaccine recommendation and booster updates. The session will feature Dr. John B. Dunn, Medical Director of Knowledge & Implementation at Kaiser Permanente, WA.
Dr. Dunn will discuss dosing regimens for the Moderna vaccine for older children and the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines for children under 6 years of age. Kristina Barnes, DOH COVID-19 Vaccine Public Health Nurse Consultant, will review current booster updates for all ages.
The presentation will be recorded and continuing education is available for nurses, medical assistants, pharmacists, and pharmacy techs. The webinar will be useful for health care providers, local public health, and anyone interested in learning more about this topic.
For more information, check out the DOH website.
June 29, 2022 12:00-1:00pm PT
In addition to the webinar, we wanted to let you know that DOH closed the COVID-19 vaccine materials ordering portal on Friday, June 24. If you placed an order prior to the closure, you will still receive your items.
We are pleased to share that the POP team will be launching a new portal this summer, and members will have the chance to order free materials promoting vaccination including stickers, posters, pens, and more!
Stay tuned for more exciting announcements in the coming weeks!
