Get Back on Track with Routine Vaccinations 

August is National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM). Join CDC and other partners in educating and bringing awareness to the importance of getting caught up on healthcare appointments and routine vaccinations. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, some families and individuals missed their routine checkups and vaccinations. With children going back to school and adults going back to the workplace, it is now more important than ever for everyone to get back on track with routine vaccinations.

 

Resources are available to help you encourage routinely recommended vaccines for a variety of audiences.
