CEOM DECLARATION ON VACCINATION
Tirana, 7th of June 2019
CEOM notes the clear increase in vaccine-preventable diseases on the European continent; this situation calls for urgent collective action.
CEOM reminds that vaccination remains one of the most important investments in health care. Therefore, there is a need to build public confidence in this prevention tool of certain communicable diseases to help people make the right choices for themselves and for their families.
CEOM calls on physicians, health professionals, health authorities and all stakeholders to work collectively to improve health sector delivery in the fight against vaccine-preventable diseases.
CEOM believes that it is essential that physicians and health professionals become more aware of the importance and challenges of vaccination and get the tools they need to better inform and convince their patients. CEOM calls on all physicians and health professionals to vaccinate themselves with the aim of preventing the dissemination of infectious diseases to their patients and of publicly showing their confidence in vaccination.
CEOM calls on European governments and educational authorities to further develop immunization courses in the basic curriculum of medical students. Vaccination should be considered as an important educational course within medicine faculties, throughout the learning process as well as in continuous professional development.
CEOM supports the European Commission's Coalition for Vaccination launched in 2019 and is committed to strengthening the exchange of good practices in vaccination between its participating organizations and in collaboration with other European Medical Associations.

CEOM Statement on Violence against Doctors and Health Professionals
Adopted in Madrid, 30th of November 2018
Download the Statement in PDF version
The right to health is a fundamental pillar of human rights. It remains applicable in all circumstances and doctors have an ethical duty to ensure their assistance for the injured and sick.
On the basis of a survey of the situations existing in all European countries, the organizations participating in the CEOM are led to establish that doctors and medical teams are increasingly confronted with situations of violence, sometimes extreme, in their daily practice, outside any context of conflict.
This worrying fact, in any form, is contrary to international human rights and medical ethics norms; it may hinder or prevent the provision of care and underlines the need to protect it as effectively as possible.
CEOM calls on governments and all concerned parties to be aware of the urgent need to protect medical and paramedical personnel in the performance of their work and to take all necessary measures to ensure access to quality care for all patients by protecting the freedom and safety of medical personnel and healthcare facilities.
