National Immunization Awareness Month highlights the need for improving national immunization coverage levels and encourages all people to protect their health by being immunized against infectious diseases. While CDC does not sponsor this month, CDC does support and encourage the efforts of state and local health departments and other immunization partners to celebrate NIAM.
This month highlights the importance immunizations play in keeping the public healthy and safe. Health-related businesses can continue to share information about immunizations and how to keep on top of vaccine schedules.
