August is National Immunization Awareness Month. Vaccinations are a critical part of public health and have been instrumental in reducing the prevalence of many infectious diseases. NIAM provides a perfect opportunity to remind everyone about the benefits of immunization and the importance of staying up to date on recommended vaccines.
Here are a few ways you can participate in National Immunization Awareness Month:
- Stay informed: Make sure you and your family are up to date on all recommended vaccinations. Check with your healthcare provider if you’re unsure.
- Schedule appointments: If your child needs vaccines before the school year starts, schedule an appointment with your healthcare provider as soon as possible. Immunizations help protect kids from serious illnesses and prevent the spread of diseases in schools and communities.
- Educate others: Share reliable information about vaccines with friends, family and colleagues. Help dispel myths and misinformation.
- Celebrate health: Take a moment to appreciate the benefits of vaccines in preventing illness and protecting public health.
You can earn points in the My Wellness program by receiving a flu vaccination this fall. Watch Marquette Today for upcoming opportunities to receive your flu vaccination on campus.
