National Infant Immunization and World Immunization Week is April 24-30!

Join us in observing National Infant Immunization Week (NIIW) and World Immunization Week! Let’s recognize our collective achievements in protecting infants and young children from 14 vaccine-preventable diseases, drastically reducing death and disability in the U.S. This is also a great opportunity to remind families to stay on track for their children’s routine checkups and recommended vaccinations; Don’t Wait – Vaccinate!

On-time vaccination is critical to provide protection against potentially life-threatening diseases. Before the back-to-school immunization rush, take time now to ensure that infants and toddlers are up to date with their vaccines.

All providers and staff play an important role in promoting childhood immunizations. Here are some simple steps to take:

Learn tips for talking with parents about childhood vaccines.
Post the immunization schedule timing guide for staff to reference.
Use #ivax2protect, #LetsTalkAboutVaxBaby, and #DontWaitVaccinate on social media to share why you support infant immunizations.
