Throwback Thursday | National Immunization Awareness Week

Not so long ago, vaccine‑preventable diseases like polio, measles, and diphtheria were common in Canada - causing widespread illness, disability, and death.

Immunization changed the course of public health. Today, those gains are supported by healthcare teams across the country, including pharmacy professionals who play a critical role in immunization services, patient education, and vaccine access.

As representatives of pharmacy technicians working to scope in immunization processes, CAPT recognizes the important contributions of these technicians who support safe, efficient, and accessible immunization delivery in communities nationwide.

During , we are reflecting on how far we’ve come, and the essential role pharmacy teams continue to play in protecting Canadians across the lifespan.

Myth‑Busting Monday – National Immunization Awareness Week

One common misconception is that immunization is only important in childhood. In reality, adults remain vulnerable to vaccine‑preventable diseases and protection can wane over time.

Together with the Adult Vaccine Alliance (AVA), CAPT is sharing resources to evidence‑based information to support vaccine confidence and informed decision‑making.

🎧 Healthcare professionals can explore AVA’s Immunization Matters Podcast Series for timely, practical conversations on adult immunization.
