New and improved CDC website for vaccines
Last week the CDC launched a new web home for all of its vaccine-related content -- www.cdc.gov/vaccines. Timed with the creation of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, which replaces the National Immunization Program,
the website has many more resources, is better organized, and is a dramatic visual improvement over the former NIP site.
We're still exploring the new site, but there is clearly a great deal of new information in addition to the expected info regarding the ACIP, recommended vaccination schedules, safety, cost/access, and much more. Also prevalent are links to websites of non-CDC (but like-minded) advocates of vaccination.
There's no doubt that the new CDC vaccines site is the premier source for understanding the federal governments' responsibilities, activities, and recommendations on vaccination.
