August is National Immunization Awareness Month, a reminder that vaccines protect people of all ages from serious diseases like measles, mumps, and whooping cough. The Monroe County Health Department will offer free back-to-school vaccinations for eligible children at several events: August 14 at Tomah Middle School, August 15 at Wilton Public Library, and August 18 at Sparta Meadowview School. Children are eligible if they’re 18 or younger and meet certain Medicaid, insurance, or tribal criteria. For details, visit the Wisconsin Immunization Registry online or call the health department at 608-269-8666.
