Today is the end of National Infant Immunization Week, a yearly observance highlighting the importance of protecting children two years and younger from vaccine-preventable diseases. There are 14 diseases that infants are generally immunized against, and shots are spread out in intervals throughout the first four years of life, with most healthcare providers able to administer the shots.
