64. Vaccines/Vaccination Paradox VACCINES ARE NEEDED BY HEALTHY PEOPLE. HEALTHY PEOPLE ARE NOT PATIENTS, THEY ARE CLIENTS. UNLESS IN DISEASE OUT BREAKS, PEOPLE DO NOT FEEL A SENSE OF URGENCY TO TAKE A VACCINE. VACCINES ARE AVAILED THROUGH CHANNELS WHERE SICK PEOPLE GO. VACCINES ARE ADMINISTERED BY CLINICIANS. CLINICIANS LARGELY DEAL WITH PATIENTS WHO VISIT THEIR CLINICS/HOSPITALS. –IN ORDER TO INCREASE ACCESS TO VACCINATION SERVICES, THERE IS NEED TO SET UP USER FRIENDLY VACCINATION SERVICE VENTRES. EVEN IF IT IS IN A HOSPITAL. IT NEED TO BE EASILY ACCESSIBLE TO CLIENTS. –IN DEVELOPED MARKETS, LARGE QUES ARE SEEN IN COMMUNITY PHARMACIES DURING FLU SEASON, –MOBILE VACCINATION SERVICES TO SCHOOLS,COLLEGES,COMPANIES ARE EMERGING.
