    Needs to show how to prepare the vaccine before giving. Had to obtain this info from manufacturer.
    Otherwise a concise course.

      Hi Emma,
      Thanks for this feedback. We are always looking to continue to improve our courses and feedback is always very useful. You are right that the Shingrix® vaccine lesson does not have a specific video showing the preparation of the vaccine like we have done in the Zostavax® vaccine lesson. This is something we are looking to do as soon as we are able. If you look in the ‘Administration section’ we have provided an outline there with a link to the SPC.

  7. Sharon Kennedy –
