Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data show that kindergartener vaccination coverage has steadily declined for all vaccines over the past two school years, from 95 percent to 93 percent nationally and by as much as 10 percent in some jurisdictions. This is the lowest the CDC has seen in kindergarten routine vaccination coverage nationally in the last decade. To support getting school-aged children back on track with their routine immunizations, the CDC is launching a nationwide “Back to School” Campaign with digital ads that will run from July through September 2023. The digital ads aim to keep routine child vaccinations top of mind among parents of school-aged children. NCPA’s Show Me video series has stories from pharmacists who have implemented immunization programs.
