State auditor finds no issues with local vaccine program; county coalition refines billboard message
Summary
A recent state site audit of Vernon County vaccine programs returned no findings; staff said the county received positive feedback and will proceed with a state-funded vaccine-hesitancy billboard campaign with the message "A conversation today supports a healthier tomorrow."
Health department staff told the board that the state auditor completed a site visit of the county's vaccine programs and "really didn't have any findings that she discussed with us. Everything was good," according to the presenter. The department said formal paperwork from the audit was provided and that no corrective actions were required.
Staff also discussed a state vaccine grant focused on reducing vaccine hesitancy; coalition members have been refining campaign wording and plan to finalize a billboard concept. The coalition favored the supportive line "A conversation today supports a healthier tomorrow" as an approach intended to encourage one-on-one conversations with providers rather than directive language.
