CDC offers free “Pink Book” webinar series

Each week between July 5 and Nov. 1, 2022, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will be releasing a new video-based session addressing a chapter from the most recent version of Epidemiology and Prevention of Vaccine-Preventable Diseases, more commonly known as the “Pink Book.”

Individuals do not need to register, and each session is archived, so you can view sessions at your convenience. These are great for teams to view together or individually, so that everyone is starting from the same place when it comes to vaccines and related recommendations.

Check out (and bookmark) the series today!

Materials in this section are updated as new information and vaccines become available. The Vaccine Education Center staff regularly reviews materials for accuracy.
