Vaccines Education

Knowledge of vaccines and vaccine development, regulatory process and adverse event monitoring process have never been as prominent in our day-to-day lives. Our ability to continue to live our lives as we have in the recent past hinges on the success of COVID-19 vaccination programs as well as our preparedness and timely response to future pandemics.
