One of PFV’s achievements is organizing an annual national immunization conference participated in by medical and paramedical health care workers, health maintenance personnel, media and other socio-civic organizations. Aside from developing and updating a recommended schedule of immunization for Filipinos, it also conducts vaccine missions in schools and universities. In addition, it is instrumental in initiating resolutions and proposals for the possible legislation of mandatory hepatitis B vaccination of infants within 24 hours of birth and complete immunization as a prerequisite for school and job entrants.

 This year, to further encourage vaccine advocacy, PFV is holding a contest on Best Immunization Practices in the Workplace/Community.This contest is open to any school, organization and institution dedicated to the promotion of vaccination. Click here for further details. previous page
