Immunization in Vermont
It's OK to Ask 
We all have questions about immunization.
And it’s good to have ongoing conversations—with
our doctors, with other parents—that center around
facts so parents like you and I can feel comfortable
with our decisions. It really is ok to ask questions
about immunization!

Vaccines are one of our nation's
most successful and cost-effective public health
tools.
Vaccinations help protect against risk of disease, whether from contact with individuals who choose to not be vaccinated, or when traveling to places that have diseases not common in Vermont.
Increasing immunization coverage will protect the health of all Vermonters by reducing, and preventing serious disease in the children and adults who receive immunizations against vaccine-preventable diseases.
The Department of Health works statewide to make sure children and adults receive the immunizations they need:
- Providing up-to-date vaccine, materials, training, and support to public and private vaccine providers.
- Working in partnership with immunization providers, and local and statewide professional organizations.
- Raising public awareness about immunizations and vaccines.
Please explore this web site to learn more about our immunization programs, and what the Department of Health has to offer.
