Event Description
The annual EU Flu Day is back! 15 years after the adoption of the 2009 Council Recommendation on Season Influenza Vaccination, the 2024 edition of EU Flu Day will discuss how leveraging data and digitalisation can help achieve the EU’s 75% vaccination uptake for influenza and expand it to include RSV, and COVID-19 considering the evolving public health landscape.
Hosted at the European Parliament by MEP András Kulja (EPP, HU) and joined by MEP Dolors Montserrat (EPP, ES), co-chair of the Steering Group on Influenza Vaccination, institutional and disease experts, health professionals and patients will explore how timely, harmonised data collection on flu, COVID-19, and RSV can help inform evidenced based policy through a better understanding of barriers to vaccination. Digital tools including electronic vaccination registries are increasingly essential for building public trust, supporting vaccine delivery, and ultimately driving data-driven public health actions.
Don’t miss it! The event, organised by the Steering Group on Influenza Vaccination, will be the forum for insightful discussion on how to leverage these tools and strategies to boost vaccination rates and protect public health across Europe.
