Abstract
For the majority of vaccinees, a 60-90° angle of vaccine administration is appropriate for IM deposition of vaccinate. The likelihood of intramuscular deposition is reduced for individuals with a BMI > 25. The increasing rates of obesity globally highlight the importance of tailoring vaccination procedures accordingly.
