Thank you for joining us for another episode of OccPod, the official podcast of the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. This episode serves as a continuation of a special series investigating vaccinations. Funding for this series was made possible (in part) by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In this episode, Erin and Dr. Nabeel are joined by guest Maria Lanzi to discuss the upcoming flu season – and the influenza vaccine.

Today's guest, Nurse Practitioner Maria Lanzi, serves as an educator and preceptor for physicians and advanced practice nurses in college and University programs including the University of Pennsylvania, Rutgers University, and the College of New Jersey. Maria's expertise relates to adult preventative care practice, with a special focus on the prevention and management of vaccine-preventable diseases and public health preparedness. She is active in public health policy development and implementation, leading community-wide educational and coalition efforts.

As always, thank you for joining us for OccPod. Don't forget to subscribe so you can hear the latest information related to occupational and environmental medicine, vaccinations, and a host of other topics.
