August is National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM). This annual observance highlights the importance of getting recommended vaccines throughout your life. You are encouraged to talk to your #pharmacist to ensure you and your family are protected against serious diseases by getting caught up on routine vaccinations. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides resources like the Growing Up with Vaccines interactive guide (linked below), which gives information on the vaccines recommended during pregnancy, throughout childhood, and into adulthood. https://lnkd.in/e2wv6JpV #pharmacy #vaccines #diseaseprevention #cdc #niam #nationalimmunizationawareness

World Immunization Week celebrates the importance of vaccines in preventing diseases and protecting public health. For pregnant women, vaccinations play a crucial role in safeguarding both maternal and fetal health. Routine vaccines, such as tetanus toxoid, administered at the 4th and 6th weeks of pregnancy, and Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis), given between the 28th and 32nd weeks, provide immunity against preventable diseases and ensure a healthy pregnancy. It's important to note that in cases of potential rabies exposure, receiving the rabies vaccine is safe for pregnant women, providing clarity and reassurance regarding vaccination concerns. Let's raise awareness about timely vaccinations for maternal and child health.
