There is a lot of talk about #COVID19 vaccines, however we don't much about existing vaccines (eg flu) in our patients! Much more work to be done here in rheumatology! @DrDavidKarp at #ACR21 opening session @rheumnow

@DoctorYasmin: "Let's talk about the history ... let's build bridges." We individualize approach to treatments, we should also individualize our conversation about vaccine hesitancy to your patient's specific concerns. @rheumnow #ACR21 https://t.co/1Jxw8l2phB

@DoctorYasmin @RheumNow Great discussion #ACR21 @DoctorYasmin: how do we stop panic/misinformation during a pandemic?
To improve health literacy, we need to learn how to engage better:
- understand the issues/public thinking
- targeted messaging to different communities
- avoid medical hubris

@DrDavidKarp: "We are learning about #COVID19 vaccine, but we don't know what to do about the other vaccines." Its a great opportunity for us to learn, research, and educate about the flu, shingles, pneumonia, and more vaccines. 💉 @RheumNow #ACR21

@DoctorYasmin notes that anti-vaccination is not a new phenomenon & that we cannot adopt a "one size fits all" method in tackling vaccine hesitancy. She emphasizes the need for targeted messaging & the ideology that vaccination is anti-American must be debunked! #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/cU33XEOYhM

"If we go back to business as usual, we will have failed." @DoctorYasmin in the #ACR21 Opening Session.
We need systems that don't need a crisis to shine on them to progressively change for the better. @RheumNow https://t.co/uf4OO2VpHV

CreakyJoints will present 11 posters and two oral presentations at ACR 2021. COVID-19 research revealed significantly high levels of anxiety, anger, depression, and social isolation, which were linked to medication interruptions and associated flares suggesting during the pandemic, patients often felt unsupported by all levels of the healthcare system.
The pharmaceutical companies will feature the results of their pivotal clinical trials and data analyses at ACR Convergence 2021. Below is a listing of some of their best studies for you to review and look for in the meeting. Often these become the pivotal studies for regulatory approval and the annual congresses are their first look.
