First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether sending a short, encouraging letter from a pharmacist can motivate more adults to get their flu and travel vaccines. Researchers will track vaccination rates and also check if vaccinated people have fewer strokes in the following six months. About 20,000 adults in Alberta, Canada, who visited a Mint Pharmacy are taking part.
