Quick #vaxfact for National Immunization Awareness Month: vaccines prevent an estimated 2,685 hospitalizations per DAY in the U.S. This is why routine vaccines are SO important! COVID vaccines have saved countless lives and prevented many hospitalizations and deaths, but even pre-pandemic routine vaccinations like those against measles, flu, and polio prevent THOUSANDS of hospitalizations every day in this country. We're grateful to live in a country where vaccine access is high and most people choose to vaccinate & we're committed to protecting people of all ages from vaccine-preventable diseases through immunization.
