Childhood Immunization Program

The Childhood Immunization Program is a public health initiative designed to protect children from serious diseases through vaccines. Immunizations help the body build immunity by training it to recognize and fight off specific infections, like measles or polio. Governments typically provide vaccines free or at low cost to ensure all children have access, as this helps prevent outbreaks and protects the entire community. By vaccinating children on a recommended schedule, we reduce the risk of illness, hospitalizations, and deaths, promoting a healthier future for individuals and society as a whole.
