Immunizations
How Do Vaccines Protect Us From Disease?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), on-time vaccination throughout childhood is essential because it helps provide immunity before children are exposed to potentially life-threatening diseases. Vaccines are tested to ensure that they are safe and effective for children to receive at the recommended ages.- How can I check my or my child's vaccine status.? You can check your or your child’s vaccination status by going onto the Wisconsin Immunization Registry (WIR) public access. To learn more on how to retrieve this information, see the Greenfield WIR brochure or the WIR portal.
