Immunization
Immunization is one of the most important things you can do to protect yourself, your family and your community from infectious diseases. Over the years, vaccines have prevented countless cases of disease and saved millions of lives. Children, adolescents and adults need different vaccinations, depending on their age, location, job, lifestyle, travel schedule, health conditions or previous vaccinations. See below for immunization schedules, related resources for the public and clinicians, policy and advocacy information, and the latest from IDSA on vaccination.

Help protect vaccine access
Most vaccine policy is determined at the state level. IDSA’s toolkit for clinicians can help you educate state policymakers about the importance of immunizations and to advocate against proposals that limit vaccine access or weaken state laws that support vaccine uptake. Your voice is critically needed to help protect the importance of lifesaving vaccines in communities and among patients.
