Abstract

Pandemic influenza poses a great challenge to healthcare systems. Vaccinating medical teams and the population against pandemic influenza is the global recommended strategy to contain spread of the disease. As part of the efforts made to overcome the H1N1 pandemic, the Israeli Ministry of Health (MOH) initiated a general vaccination program for medical teams and the total country population. Due to low compliance rates of the medical staff, the MOH conducted regional conferences aimed at providing knowledge and encouraging staff to be vaccinated.
