This first conference proposed by the Gerontopolis is part of a regional dissertation project called Vaccingo, which aims to design a vaccine prevention program. Vaccingo includes an epidemiological phase to quantify the impact of non-vaccination on comorbidities, loss of autonomy, aging … and a qualitative phase to understand the barriers and levers of vaccination. At the end of these two phases, a prevention program based on health marketing will be proposed, Nathalie Barth explains.

At the end of each round table, an exchange time will be organized by chat to ask questions.
