At the 2022 Texas Vaccine Policy Symposium, researchers and stakeholders across the state will discuss the impact of vaccines in Texas — and the lessons learned over the past two years as policymakers look ahead to the 88th Texas legislative session, which starts in January 2023. They will also consider ways to uncouple vaccines from politics and how to effectively advocate for policies that can improve access to vaccines for those who need them most.
The symposium will include two panels with experts discussing issues including vaccine costs, equity, misinformation and stakeholder concerns about public health. Following the panels, Dr. Peter J. Hotez, a vaccine scientist at the Baylor College of Medicine and the Baker Institute fellow in disease and poverty, will provide a keynote address.
