A representative on the House floor reminded members that SJR3 designates October as Adult Immunization Month, distributed materials for members to use with medical homes, and urged keeping adult immunizations current to protect populations and children from diseases including hepatitis, chickenpox and flu.
On the House floor a representative reminded members that the legislature previously passed SJR3, recognizing October as Adult Immunization Month, and distributed a checklist and informational materials for members to use with medical homes.
