Hybrid Immunity, Future Vaccines, and the Ongoing COVID-19 Threat. Join us as we sift through the latest developments, offering you the most up-to-date info.

▶️🎧🎙️PART 2! Tools to use on the frontline and tips to engage your patients in 60 seconds or less! We untangle the complex web of the COVID-19 pandemic and plot a course for the journey ahead with 𝐃𝐫.Alan Kaplan and Dr.Marla Shapiro who break down all you need to know.

✔️✔️We take an in-depth look at the unfolding chapter of the COVID-19 pandemic. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the global health emergency phase over, yet COVID-19 remains a persistent adversary. Seems like a contradiction, right? We're dissecting this communique and explore how to break it down on the frontlines. We ask, where are we headed now?

✔️✔️We delve into the questions on everyone's mind: Do our current vaccines shield us against the elusive XBB.1.16 variant? What does the end of the 'emergency phase' actually mean for us on a day-to-day basis? And with the virus still lurking in our midst, how do we navigate this new landscape of coexistence?

✔️✔️We examine the WHO's Technical Advisory Group (TAG) proposal to retire the original COVID-19 strain from future vaccines and explore what this could mean for the future of public vaccination strategies.

✔️✔️We're also talking the latest research on hybrid immunity and how to translate this for your patients in a meaningful way. What happens when natural infection immunity meets vaccine-induced immunity? Does this 'hybrid immunity' offer us an extra layer of protection?

✔️✔️Keeping the conversation light, the information insightful, and the health advice actionable to navigate the road ahead.

🎙️🎙️🎙️ MINI EPISODE 1: A Conversation with Dr.Sonia Anand MD, PhD, FRCPC
💡 💡 💡Ensuring immunization of structurally disadvantaged populations: Black People and other people of colour

Podcast Learning objectives
• Describe how race-disaggregated data can allow for more targeted, community-specific interventions.
• Apply novel community-specific work to engage communities to support immunization.
• Illustrate how anti-Black racism presents a pervasive barrier to engaging with preventive health care initiatives.

For this mini podcast, we delve into how historical and systemic racism creates hurdles not only in understanding vaccine coverage discrepancies in Canada, but also in crafting effective, nuanced responses. We spotlight the distinctive obstacles Black and Asian communities in Canada have faced in accessing vaccines, both amidst the pandemic and prior to it. In the absence of detailed race-specific data for monitoring diseases preventable by vaccines and tracking vaccination rates, it is difficult to adequately cater to marginalized communities who face systemic barriers to healthcare access, including vaccinations. Dr.Anand unpacks this complex issue.

🎬🎙️ Often climate change is not a top of mind issue when it comes to healthcare planning and resource allocation. In anticipation of Dr.Tam's upcoming Annual report, we deep dive into how public health is building in plans to address climate change, extreme weather event, and the changing endemicity of transmissible diseases as a result.
