World Immunization Day is observed every year on November 10 to raise awareness about the importance of vaccination in protecting people of all ages from preventable diseases.

🩺 Purpose

The day emphasizes how vaccines play a key role in:

Reducing child mortality

Preventing serious and sometimes deadly infections (like polio, measles, hepatitis, influenza, etc.)

Supporting global public health and community immunity

Why It Matters

• Immunization prevents 2–3 million deaths every year (WHO data).
• It protects not just individuals, but entire communities through herd immunity.
• Vaccination is one of the most cost-effective health interventions in history.

💉 Key Message

“Vaccination is not just a personal choice — it’s a community responsibility.”
