Launch of On-Site Influenza Vaccination Service by JS Medical Holdings

Overview

JS Medical Holdings, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has announced the introduction of an on-site influenza vaccination service for businesses and organizations in the Tokyo metropolitan area. Set to begin accepting applications for the 2025 fiscal year, this initiative aims to enhance infection control measures at workplaces, provide efficient vaccination options, and contribute to business continuity planning (BCP).

Understanding Influenza Vaccination

Influenza vaccinations work by introducing inactivated pathogens (like viruses and bacteria) into the body to prepare the immune system and reduce the likelihood of contracting the disease. Conducting these vaccinations consistently across an organization significantly improves overall immunity and helps prevent secondary infections among employees. Typically, antibody formation occurs approximately two weeks after vaccination, with the antibodies maintaining effectiveness for about five months.

Increased Risks and Workplace Preparedness

Recent years have seen a rise in overseas travel and an increased risk of seasonal influenza outbreaks occurring earlier than in previous years. While vaccine supply remains stable, the time and effort required to book appointments with external medical facilities often leads to lower participation rates for employees. JS Medical Holdings addresses this issue with their on-site service, ensuring that vaccination becomes a more accessible option for all employees.

Key Features of the On-Site Vaccination Service

• - Increased Participation: By creating a comfortable environment for employees to receive vaccinations on-site, companies can see higher engagement with health initiatives they promote.

• - Cost Reduction: Companies can save on travel costs due to the convenience of in-office vaccination, and several employees can be vaccinated efficiently in a short time frame, minimizing the impact on work hours.

• - Business Continuity Planning (BCP): By facilitating group vaccinations for over a specific number of employees, organizations can achieve herd immunity, contributing positively to their business continuity plans during health crises.

1. Site Assessment: The space required for vaccinations will be pre-checked. Online meetings are available for this purpose.
