Vaccine Misinformation Management Field Guide & Vaccine Messaging Guide
UNICEF has created a guide for addressing a global infodemic and fostering the demand for immunization. It has also created a vaccine messaging guide intended for public health professionals, communicators, advocates, and anyone else who “wishes to create pro-vaccine content to motivate people to vaccinate themselves and their entourage.”

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
The CDC has released the General Best Practice Guidelines for Immunization as an online report, available on the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) web page (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/acip-recs/general-recs/index.html). The General Best Practice Guidelines for Immunization replace the General Recommendations on Immunization, last published in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) in 2011.

HPV Roundtable
The National HPV Vaccination Roundtable (HPV Roundtable) is a trusted coalition of public, private, and voluntary organizations and experts dedicated to reducing the incidence of and mortality from HPV cancers in the United States. Check out their resources.
Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)
The IDSA has created their Vaccine Advocacy Toolkit. While the United States has made significant progress toward eliminating vaccine-preventable diseases among children, similar successes have not yet occurred for adults and adolescents. Unacceptably low immunization rates exist among many adults and adolescents in the US. To combat this failure, IDSA developed a set of policy principles and recommendations to strengthen adult and adolescent immunizations, and we are working with federal and state partners to move these ideas forward.
National Vaccine Advisory Committee (NVAC)
The National Vaccine Advisory Committee (NVAC) recommends ways to achieve optimal prevention of human infectious diseases through vaccine development and provides direction to prevent adverse reactions to vaccines. This advice is presented to the Assistant Secretary for Health, who serves as the Director of the National Vaccine Program, on matters related to program responsibilities. Their latest report on Advancing Immunization Equity offers recommendations to address challenges to achieving equity in immunization.
