With growing concerns about measles outbreaks in neighboring states, efforts are underway to make immunizations available in Wisconsin, and to encourage parents to get their kids vaccinated. Children's Hospital of Wisconsin is committed to providing resources so all children--whether or not they're a current patient--can get vaccinated.
