**_ THE OPPORTUNITY_**

This is a unique moment in time for vaccines in Canada: The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the general awareness of patients, prescribers and payers of the importance of vaccination. For decades now, Canada and most other G20 countries have implemented robust vaccination programs for children. Unfortunately, when it comes to adult immunization program, there are significant gaps and barriers. In Canada, adult immunization rates are persistently lower than in children, even for comparable diseases.

Now, with older adults making up an increasing proportion of the population in countries like Canada, and given the continued individual vulnerability of older adults to infectious diseases due to age-related decline in immunity and the higher risk of comorbidities, there is a need for greater focus on vaccinating older adults.

To help tackle this challenge, the Canadian Government Affairs and Market Access division is growing, creating are looking for a new role of Vaccines Access Strategist.
