Abstract
In normal times, the Canadian Immunization Conference (CIC) takes place every two years, bringing together public health officials, community advocates, and researchers and clinicians with an interest in vaccines and vaccine- preventable diseases. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the conference had not taken place in person since 2018 – in part due to restrictions on travel and gatherings, but also because many attendees were heavily involved in managing the most wide-ranging public health crisis of our time, including the largest mass vaccination campaign in human history. CIC 2023 was a long-awaited opportunity to appreciate the efforts and successes of the response to COVID-19, and to look ahead to how advances in vaccine technologies and improvements in public health processes might help us close a significant gap in immunizations against other vaccine-preventable diseases that occurred over those years. This report will focus on presentations and perspectives relevant to routine immunization programs against seasonal influenza in Canada.
