The Vaccine Handbook Joins Healio AI as Latest Trusted Source
June 16, 2026
Thorofare, NJ – Healio AI and The Vaccine Handbook: A Practical Guide for Clinicians announce their partnership to integrate the content of the handbook into Healio AI, adding to the platform’s growing collection of trusted clinical references.
“At a time when vaccine information is evolving rapidly and confidence in information is more important than ever, access to evidence-based guidance like The Vaccine Handbook is critical,” says Joan-Marie Stiglich, ELS, Chief AI Officer at Healio. “By adding this respected resource to Healio AI’s knowledge base, we’re expanding the depth of reliable information available to users while reinforcing our commitment to trust.”
The Vaccine Handbook, also known as “The Purple Book,” is a comprehensive resource for health care professionals that contains vital information on every licensed vaccine in the United States, while also providing practical and administrative advice. Moreover, it provides much needed guidance on addressing vaccine hesitancy among families.
Author Gary S. Marshall, MD, Chief of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at Norton Children’s and the University of Louisville School of Medicine, continues to update the handbook to stay current with the ever-changing vaccine landscape.
“The Purple Book is a comprehensive, user-friendly, “one-stop shop” for up-to-date information about vaccine science, policy, products, and practice. For over 20 years it has occupied a unique place on the bookshelf—and in the pocket—of front-line providers, nurses, pharmacists, trainees, and even some patients and parents,” said Marshall. “The book has always been indexed and extensively referenced, but now, in the “hands” of Healio’s trusted and powerful AI tool, the content will be even more accessible and useful for anyone with an answerable vaccine question, whether they are in the exam room or at the kitchen table.”
The Vaccine Handbook joins a strong group of trusted clinical sources powering Healio AI. For more information on Healio AI or sources, visit Healio.com/AI.
