The Vaccine Handbook: A Practical Guide for Clinicians (“The Purple Book” is a uniquely comprehensive source of practical, up-to-date information for vaccine providers, educators, and advocates. It draws together the latest vaccine science and guidance into a concise, user-friendly, practical resource for the private office, public health clinic, academic medical center, hospital, and classroom.
The Vaccine Handbook App provides
• Vital information on every licensed vaccine in the United States;
• Rationale behind authoritative vaccine recommendations;
• Contingencies encountered in everyday practice;
• Advice on how to address concerns about vaccines;
• Background on vaccine policy and infrastructure;
• Standards and regulations;
• Office logistics, billing procedures, and much more.
The 11th edition contains updates that include:
Completely rewritten and expanded chapter on COVID-19, containing the latest authorized products, schedules, and recommendations in plain language.
Newly available vaccines: MMR (Priorix); PCV15 (Vaxneuvance); PCV20 (Prevnar 20); tick-borne encephalitis vaccine (Ticovac).
Long-awaited preferential recommendation for use of higher dose and adjuvanted (so called “enhanced”) influenza vaccines in older adults.
Use of PCV15 in children.
Concise guidelines for vaccination in special circumstances.
Discussion of new issues regarding policy and mandates that have arisen in the COVID-19 era.
Setting the record straight in the midst of the Vaccine Misinformation Pandemic.
Tips on effectively communicating the benefits and risks of vaccination to patients.
Links to CoVER modules throughout the app.
About the Author: Gary S. Marshall, MD, a professor of pediatrics at the University of Louisville School of Medicine in Kentucky, serves as chief of the Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases. In addition to being a busy clinician, he is nationally known for his work in the areas of vaccine research, advocacy, and education.

From the Foreword . . .
“The Purple Book is a tried and true, concise, user-friendly compendium of pretty much everything you need to know to engage in vaccine practice. TPB is the next best thing to having a personal vaccine expert on speed dial. . . or in the office next door. I have both, but I still use TPB on a regular basis (there’s also a copy in our clinic and one in the fellow’s welcome packet).”
