Hack Healthcare 2024 gathered a dynamic mix of health innovators to tackle key issues the community and partners pointed out. Within the important area of check-ups and prevention, one big challenge stood out: “Optimising adult vaccination to ensure healthy longevity” proposed by GSK and MSD.

 This focused on how to help people keep up with their shots, know when they’re due, and ultimately take steps to prevent illness throughout their adult lives. The teamwork on this specific challenge during the hackathon The collaborative energy of the Hack Healthcare 2024 initiative led to some promising ideas and potential ways forward. The details of these are now in the white paper that goes with this.

This paper details that ‘crowdsourced’ conclusion – the Personalised Life-Course Vaccination Overview – a practical approach designed not only to protect individual health through timely, tailored immunisations but also to significantly bolster societal well-being and provide tangible benefits across the healthcare ecosystem.
