To the Honorable, the Assembly:
I am proud to submit, as required by s.
252.04(11), Wis. Stats., the Wisconsin Immunization Program Annual Report. The State has made important progress towards attaining the goals in Governor Doyle's KidsFirst Initiative and the Healthiest Wisconsin 2010.
Wisconsin continues to maintain high immunization levels. The national immunization survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) demonstrates that 81.2% of Wisconsin's two-year old children have received their primary vaccination series, compared to 79.4% for the rest of the nation. During state fiscal year 2005, over $14 million worth of federally funded vaccines were distributed to public and private health care providers through the State.
The new Governor's Hallmark card program that began in January 2004 continues to emphasize the importance of early immunizations. The brightly colored cards are signed by both the Governor and First Lady and are mailed to all parents of newborn children who are 6 weeks of age. The card contains information on where childhood immunizations are available and a reminder encouraging parents to begin and to keep their children on schedule. Approximately 88,000 cards were mailed in calendar year 2004.
The Wisconsin Immunization Registry (WIR) continues to grow in participation and enhancements. The registry is a secure Internet database that records and tracks immunization data of Wisconsin's children, no matter where the immunizations are administered. The WIR currently provides immunization information to providers, and in the future will provide the same information to parents to help them keep track of their children's immunizations. To date, over 11,000 users are on the registry and over 3.5 million client records are recorded. The addition of the Geographic Information System (GIS) software offers an exciting tool that will allow providers to reconcile addresses and analyze pockets of need. GIS will help the Department target areas of the State in need of immunization services.
I am pleased with the progress Wisconsin is making in raising immunization rates. At the same time, we cannot, and we will not, rest on our success. We are committed to working with our partners in both the public and private sector to ensure that vaccine preventable diseases become and remain a thing of the past. Our children need and deserve the healthiest state in which to live, and our best efforts to protect them from preventable illness.
Sincerely,
Helene Nelson
