August is National Immunization Awareness Month, an opportunity ACP supports for internists to encourage their patients to get an annual flu shot and make sure they are up to date on the latest recommended immunizations.

ACP's Adult Immunization Resource Hub is updated regularly and includes the latest vaccine recommendations, patient education resources, quality improvement strategies, practice assessments, and more.
