The Hamilton County Health Department and the State Department of Health will hold a free webinar focused on back-to-school immunizations at 6 p.m. tonight, July 24. Parents, guardians, and caregivers are encouraged to join to ensure their children are fully prepared and protected for the upcoming school year.
The webinar will cover a comprehensive range of vaccines, including those children need before heading back to school. Immunization experts will also discuss the importance of the RSV, HPV, and flu vaccines.
“Ensuring our children receive the necessary immunizations is crucial for their health and the well-being of our community,” said Julie Nagel, Immunization Coordinator for the Hamilton County Health Department. “We want to provide parents with the latest information and resources to make informed decisions about their children’s health.”
Nagel says many kids missed vaccinations during the pandemic and parents aren’t sure where to start in getting them caught up.
“It is important kids get caught up on their vaccines, but parents shouldn’t let that overwhelm them,” Nagel assures caregivers. “Healthcare providers can help create an immunization schedule to ensure they get all the necessary immunizations in a timely manner.”
