Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
PAAB exemption - Vaccines
-
Hello, If my client wants to do an corporate branded message to HCPs where the CTA is just
"Don't skip your vaccinations"
Could this be PAAB exempted?
thanks!
AliGood Morning @ali
Assuming that the manufacturer has vaccines, this message inherently promotes the sale of healthcare products which it has a vested interest in. Exemption criteria in 1.5E of the PAAB Code is for corporate messages that do not contain product information or product lists. Mention of vaccination is a message about a healthcare product. This piece would not be considered exempt.
