What is one of the most life-saving health interventions in history? VACCINES! They are one of the most effective and safe public health interventions. The issues are: -most people don't know which disease can be prevented with vaccination or if they are at risk and would benefit from vaccination. -vaccination is not top of mind for healthcare professionals so they do not think of recommending it to their at risk patients. HERE IS A TIP: For all those patients you are recommending dietary modifications and lifestyle changes to improve their disease outcomes (ex: diabetes, hypertension, obesity, etc), they are the same patients that may also benefit from COVID, Flu, Pneumonia vaccination...and more. ADULT VACCINATION NEEDS TO BECOME AN HABIT, just like lifestyle modification recommendations.

World Immunization Week, Organized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and celebrated in the last week of April, aims to highlight the collective action needed and to promote the use of vaccines to protect people of all ages against disease.

The theme for this year is Humanly Possible: Saving lives through immunization This year World Immunization Week will celebrate 50 years of the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI-AJK) – recognizing our collective efforts to save and improve countless lives from vaccine-preventable diseases and calling on countries to ramp up investments in immunization programmes to protect the next generations. #vaccinesWork #worldimmunizationweek #immunizationweek #polio #vaccination #WHO #immunization
