The Washington State Department of Health reports that immunizations have proven to be the most effective way to control the spread of diseases that can be prevented, which are at record low levels.
The Office of Immunization and Child Profile continues to work for a safer and healthier Washington.
The office works to:
- Prevent vaccine-preventable diseases in children, adolescents, and adults
- Promote healthy families and increase use of preventive health care for children and adolescents
- Provide vaccines at no cost to providers for all children under age 19
Recently, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) met to discuss and vote on several topics including flu, COVID-19, and RSV.
