August is National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM), a time to emphasize vaccines’ critical role in protecting people of all ages from preventable diseases. This annual observance reminds individuals and families to review their vaccination status and ensure they are up to date. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides valuable resources in both English and Spanish to help you spread the word and encourage vaccinations.
Vaccinations are more crucial than ever, with diseases like measles and polio returning due to decreased vaccination rates. Make sure you and your family are protected. The CDC has a handy quiz to help you determine which vaccines you might need. Learn more about recommended vaccinations.
