IKC X Voices for Vaccines Campaign

Week 1 (August 1 - August 2)

week 1 graphic

Caption: Trends come and go, but vaccines keep doing what they’ve always done: shielding us from diseases that once caused serious harm. They protected our parents, and they’re still working for us today.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption: Las noticias cambian, pero la vacuna contra el sarampión sigue previniendo el sarampión. La vacuna contra la polio sigue previniendo la polio. Funcionaron para nuestros padres y siguen funcionando hoy para nosotros.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

Week 2 (August 5 - August 10)

week 1 graphic

Caption: Being informed about vaccines means knowing that ingredients like gelatin and aluminum aren’t scary—they’re there for specific, science-based reasons. Knowledge beats worry every time.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption: Saber lo que contiene una vacuna nos hace sentir más tranquilos. Ingredientes como la gelatina o el aluminio no están ahí por casualidad: tienen funciones específicas y están respaldados por la ciencia. El conocimiento siempre le gana al miedo.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity





Week 3 (August 11 - August 16)



week 1 graphic

Caption: While debates may make the news, kindergarten enrollment forms tell a different story: most parents are consistently choosing protection. Nearly 90% of kids are protected against measles before starting school!
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 3 graphic

Caption: Aunque los debates pueden aparecer en las noticias, los formularios de inscripción al jardín de infancia cuentan una historia diferente: la mayoría de los padres optan constantemente por la protección. ¡Casi el 90 % de los niños están protegidos contra los sarampión antes de empezar la escuela!
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 3 graphic

Caption: The science behind vaccines is settled, but the policies that protect access to them need ongoing support. That’s where advocacy makes a real difference—and why it’s so important to hear from Kansans who care about protecting their communities.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 3 graphic

Caption: La ciencia ya ha demostrado que las vacunas funcionan, pero también necesitamos que la gente las defienda. Escuche a los habitantes de Kansas que se preocupan por proteger a sus comunidades.

Week 4 (August 19 - August 24)



week 1 graphic

Caption: Pregnancy puts you at higher risk of certain infections—even if you’ve always been healthy. Vaccines step in to provide the protection your body might not be able to give on its own.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption: Pertussis, hep A, and meningitis still occasionally find their way into our communities. The difference between an outbreak affecting you or passing you by? Being up to date on vaccines.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption: Hepatitis B can affect anyone, but universal vaccination means no one has to wonder if they’re protected. Protect everyone from birth, and we can eliminate this disease entirely.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption:El embarazo puede hacerte más vulnerable a infecciones, incluso si siempre ha sido saludable. Las vacunas te ayudan a protegerte y a pasarle defensas a tu bebé desde antes de nacer.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption:La tos ferina, la hepatitis A y la meningitis aún se propagan ocasionalmente en nuestras comunidades. ¿Cuál es la diferencia entre un brote que te afecta y uno que te pasa de largo? Mantén tus vacunas al día.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption: hepatitis B puede afectar a cualquier persona, pero la vacunación universal evita que te preguntes si estás protegido o no. Protejamos a todos desde el nacimiento para eliminar esta enfermedad por completo.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity





Week 5 (August 25 - August 31)



week 1 graphic

Caption: You send your kids to school to learn, not to get sick. Outbreaks belong in the lesson plan—not in real life. Vaccines help keep it that way—keeping classrooms full and futures on track.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 5 graphic

Caption: The Vaccines for Children program isn’t just policy—it’s proof that America has long believed vaccination is so important that cost should never be a barrier. That’s the kind of commitment that saves lives.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 1 graphic

Caption: Envías a tus hijos a la escuela a aprender, no a enfermarse. Los brotes pertenecen al plan de estudios, no a la vida real. Las vacunas ayudan a que siga siendo así, manteniendo las aulas llenas y el futuro encaminado.
#NIAM2025 #ImmunityCommunity

week 5 graphic

Caption: El programa Vacunas para Niños no es solo una política, es la prueba de que Estados Unidos siempre ha creído que la vacunación es tan importante que el costo nunca debería ser un obstáculo. Ese es el tipo de compromiso que salva vidas.
