Celebrating National Immunization Awareness Month
Today brings the start of August, and with it the beginning of National Immunization Awareness Month. Our friends at the CDC have a bunch of helpful resources and communication tools for healthcare professionals on their website about vaccines and their importance. Routine vaccinations dropped by more than 14% during the pandemic. Let’s get our community back on track by encouraging our families and neighbors to catch up and protect their health.

This misinformation makes resources from trusted medical professionals like Health Possible even more essential. We rounded up a few posts to help patients understand the importance of immunizations—which is great food for thought during Immunization Awareness Month. Explore the links below, and find even more helpful content at HealthPossible.org.
