National Influenza Vaccination Week (NIVW) is an annual, national awareness week focused on highlighting the importance of influenza vaccination. NIVW will be held from December 2-6 this year. NIVW serves as a reminder that it’s not too late to recommend influenza vaccination for everyone 6 months and older for whom influenza vaccination is appropriate.
