AUGUST IS NATIONAL IMMUNIZATION<br />

AWARENESS MONTH<br />

One of the most important things a parent can do to protect their<br />

child’s health is getting their child vaccinated according to the<br />

recommended immunization schedule. Whether parents have<br />

a baby starting at a new child care facility, a toddler heading to<br />

preschool, a student going back to elementary, middle or high<br />

school - or even a college freshman - parents should check their<br />

child’s vaccination records.<br />

Child care facilities, preschool programs, schools and colleges are<br />

prone to disease outbreaks. Children in these settings can easily<br />

spread illnesses to one another due to poor hand washing, not<br />

covering their coughs and sneezes and other factors related to<br />

interacting in crowded environments.<br />

Serious health consequences can arise if children are not vaccinated.<br />

Without vaccines, children are at increased risk for disease<br />

and can spread disease to others in their play groups, child care<br />

centers, classrooms and communities. This includes spreading<br />

diseases to babies who are too young to be fully vaccinated and<br />

people with weakened immune systems due to cancer and other<br />

health conditions.<br />

Additionally, states may require children who are entering child<br />

care or school to be vaccinated against certain diseases. Colleges<br />

and universities may have their own requirements, especially for<br />

students living in residence halls. Parents should check with their<br />

child’s doctor, school or the local health department to learn about<br />

vaccine requirements in their state or county.<br />
