Editor's Note
The Joint Commission on November 30 announced the launch of a new patient safety campaign—Speak Up About Vaccinations—that is designed to help patients better understand vaccines.
The campaign includes:
- an infographic poster/flyer in three sizes

The Joint Commission started the Speak Up program in 2002, and it has been used in more than 70 countries to encourage patients to be their own advocates.
