Abstract

An immediate need exists to provide influenza vaccination to migrant workers on dairy farms in Northern Vermont as vaccination is not accessible to the farmworker population within the current framework that exists. The importance of widespread distribution of the influenza vaccine, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, has been established but significant barriers to access prevent the migrant farmworker population from receiving the vaccine.
