🌟 Update on the Understanding Yukoners' Attitudes Towards Vaccines Project! 🌟

We're thrilled to share our ATV Project timeline for the upcoming year. In the first part of 2025, we will close out our community-based conversations and territory-wide survey. The remainder of the year will focus on sharing what we've heard at community events and through public reporting.

Your voices matter, and we can’t wait to honour what we've heard. Thank you for being part of this journey toward understanding how Yukoners make decisions about COVID-19 and flu vaccines.
