Fall 2023 marks the first time that vaccines for three respiratory illnesses - COVID-19, seasonal influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) - will be available simultaneously. If taken, these vaccines can mitigate increases in cases, hospitalizations, and deaths that could strain the healthcare system, negatively impact the economy, and add to stress for individuals and families over the coming months. This publication describes vaccination strategies for fall 2023 that are based on current research in science communication, decision making, sociology, anthropology, and social psychology. Produced through the Societal Experts Action Network (SEAN), this rapid expert consultation links researchers in the social, behavioral, and economic sciences with decision makers to provide actionable guidance on critical and complex issues, including those related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
