Vaccines are one of the most important tools we have to protect the health of our nation's most vulnerable citizens, our children.
Vaccines are Highly Cost Effective
For every $1 spent*:
DTaP saves. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . MMR saves . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Perinatal Hep B saves . . . . . . . Varicella saves . . . . . . . . . . . . . Inactivated Polio (IPV) saves. .
*direct and indirect savings (including work loss, death, and disability)
$27.00 $26.00 $14.70 $ 5.40 $ 5.45
Childhood Immunization Program Successes
Vaccine-preventable diseases
at an all time low
Record high coverage rates Measles is no longer endemic in
the U.S. and Western Hemisphere
Rubella Eliminated
Immunization is one of the most important ways parents can protect their children against serious diseases.
