Vaccine infographics with relevant numbers

Statistics are great, but not all are helpful. A good vaccine infographic makes the best use of statistics by including only the most relevant numbers that are important to know.

A vaccine infographic that highlights numbers immediately helps audiences understand what data are relevant to them and eliminates the barriers to patient education.

The vaccine promotion above by Statista immediately shows you what can happen if you get COVID when you’re vaccinated vs. unvaccinated in Wisconsin. The clever use of bar graphs to visualize the data makes it easier for people to grasp the numbers.

This infographic created by the State Health Access Data Assistance Center (SHADAC) is useful for finding out flu vaccination rates by ethnicity, by household income, and more.

This vaccine infographic presents flu vaccination rates by different categories, each visualized using a suitable data visualization format like donut charts, bar charts, maps, etc. It simplifies the task of going through multiple patient education or research documents to find the relevant data.

Vaccine infographics for a specific demographic

A recent survey by STAT-Harris found that 35% of Generation Z (Gen Z) and 29% of millennials said they would “wait a while and see” before getting vaccinated. These stats emphasize the need for vaccine patient education targeted toward these demographics.

Infographics targeted toward a specific demographic work well because they trigger discussions centered on the topic, which spreads between people in that demographic through word of mouth or social media.

Here are some examples of COVID vaccine infographics targeting Gen Z and millennials.

The average Gen Z or millennial reads a lot of short social media captions. Infographics for this demographic should be short and straight to the point, like this example from the CDC. Notice the heavy reliance on visual use and how the text is very concise, making it easy to get the gist of the infographic at a glance.

This is an infographic by the World Health Organization (WHO) that targets young adults. The highlights in the text are in bold to show readers what to focus on, which is great for Gen Z and millennial readers who have a short attention span. Additionally, the image used of a young woman with a laptop is very relatable to Gen Z and millennials.

This infographic by Impact Science demystifies myths about COVID-19 that young people may have. Using familiar symbols (for example, thumbs up or down) simplifies the content.

Infographics for vaccine benefits

Not everyone is educated about the benefits of vaccines. Some even believe in conspiracy theories that are not true.

Health professionals can use vaccine infographics to highlight the benefits of vaccination using factual information and/or statistics. Healthcare providers can place these types of informative infographics right where patients can read them such as in examination rooms and hospital lobbies.

Here are some infographics that highlight vaccine benefits.

This flu vaccination infographic is straight to the point as it draws readers’ attention to the big numbers and uses different ways to make these numbers meaningful. The text content is also very impactful: “It could have been even worse without flu vaccines.”

Here’s another informative immunization infographic on flu vaccinations. This one compares the estimated number of flu hospitalizations to the population of a whole city (Miami), making the big number easily understandable.

Healthcare providers can also convert information from these infographics into other formats, like a vaccine brochure or vaccine poster. This Venngage vaccine brochure template visualizes big numbers in the same way, making it easy for people to grasp the full benefits of flu vaccinations:

Moving away from the topic of flu vaccinations, this infographic by the Washington University School of Medicine touches on the HPV vaccine.

The goal of this infographic is to show the huge drop in cancer-causing HPV infections because of the vaccine. Seeing how it also focuses on making the big numbers pop, this infographic has a great potential to increase vaccination rates.

Vaccine infographics that correct misinformation

Vaccine hesitancy is a growing phenomenon. In an NBCLX/Morning Consult poll conducted in March 2021, the generations with the highest vaccine hesitancy rates were Gen Z and millennials.

Providing accurate vaccine information and addressing concerns related to vaccines using effective communication tools such as infographics can help encourage people to get vaccinated.

Take a look at the following vaccine infographics that help to correct misinformation. The first one provides some more information for child vaccination:

Proper vaccine education for parents can increase child vaccination rates. In this infographic, the CDC assures people that children’s vaccines go through many phases of development before they are added to the US recommended immunization schedule. Another fact that parents may not know is that even after vaccines are licensed, they are continuously monitored for safety.

Did you know that not everyone has access to the COVID-19 vaccines? Socioeconomic barriers, which are beyond the control of most people, are preventing many Americans from getting their vaccines. The people who are the hardest to reach include people of color, with low income, with limited English proficiency, experiencing homelessness, and who are immigrants. The infographic above does a great job of correcting the misinformation that most people have access to the COVID-19 vaccines.
