Vaccines for Children (VFC) Program:
Today, The VFC Program Provides Vaccines AT NO COST To Kids Who Need Them.
The Vaccine for Children (VFC) Program Was Created After The Deadly Measles Outbreak in The U.S. From 1989 to 1991. What Happened?
- Tens of thousands of kids got Measles – Many Died.
- Many children were not vaccinated because their families could not afford immunizations.
