Abstract
Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the importance of vaccinations in protecting both healthcare workers (HCWs) and their patients. With the retreat of the pandemic, attention must now shift to reinforcing routine immunizations among HCWs, including measles, varicella, rubella, and other vaccine-preventable diseases. This letter highlights the need for mandatory vaccinations for HCWs to minimize nosocomial infections and ensure patient safety, drawing insights from recent studies on vaccine coverage and attitudes in the healthcare sector.
